Default rear control arms ball joints

Can anyone help. I noticed my reae wheels looked like they were sinking into the rear fenders. I took it to the shop an they said the rear ball joints are bad an I had to replace both control arms in the rear. I was told 500 plus to fix. Can I just replace the ball joints or do I have to replace the control arms?

Being sunk in can be multiple things but the most common is your springs are starting to sag. But it is a high possibility your bushings are bad on your upper control arms/camber causing them to sink inwards, making it look like so / \
