08 TYPE-S 6MT - Bad mounts? Video included

Hi Everyone, need help figuring out if my mounts are bad.

I have an 08 Acura TL TYPE-S 6 Speed Manual.

I took a video of three of the engine mounts under load (Gave it gas, braked then let my foot off the clutch...prob did this too many times):
-First clip: Front Engine Mount
-Second clip: Passenger Side mount
-Third clip: Transmission Upper mount

Here is the Youtube link: https://youtu.be/V3irR7XSFQk

Should i replace them all? Please let me know what you all think.

The mounts didn't look good from the video. Does your car makes clunking noises going over bumps and pot holes at low speed (5-10 mph)? I have noises like bad front and rear suspension problems when going over bumps at low speed. The noises are gone once the front and side mounts were replaced on my 115k 06. The rear mount don't usually go bad so I would start with those first.
