You need a rear valance:

and valance closing panels for both sides:

And although it's hard to tell from the angle, it looks like some of that boot floor needs replacing as well.

You need a boot floor repair. There should be three skins of metal in that area, you can't just chop them out and replace them with a single sheet. You must put the right panels back in.

ahhh cheers dan, would i be right in thinking the boot floor itself counts as one, and the closing panel as 2, what is the 3rd?

The base of the wheelarch stiffener bracket. I can see what you've been thinking but the larger part of the closing panel is the section that closes the valence and the smaller part goes under the boot floor, not the other way up.
