The solution is to add strength to the mounting point with a subframe reinforcement kit. I bought the ASR brace. Beaks makes a kit as well.

#234485 What is the idealistic MM for swaybars in hatches?
Or the size of the swaybar that will only benefit the handling of your hatch?

I prefer the ASR since it has better mounting points. But keep the Beaks since you already have it.

It all depends what kind of driving you do and how you want your car to handle (amount of oversteer)
In general, the thicker rear swaybars will further reduce understeer
