    Yeah, rust at that point it needs taken care of, not covered up.

    Grind it down till you see rust no more then see how bad the damage is.

    Once you see the paint bubble like that, it's all down hill from there. You can grind it off but it's going to come back.

    So I pulled some carpet off in the trunk and wow I could press a whole right threw it. So I guess I am going to use some bondo on it. And red neck it back together.

    You should probably take off the side moulding piece there and see how far it goes down the panel behind the piece.

    Find someone with a welder and do it right, or dont even bother touching it. You will only make it worse.

    You did not catch it early. That is nasty. Like has been said, don't "redneck it together". You will be much better off by paying someone to cut that crap out and weld in new sheetmetal. Do it now or junk your car in a couple years because it won't pass safety.

    NOT something you want to ignore or cover up.

    won't pass for safety because of a small chunk of rot? All cars up here would fail then. It's purely cosmetic

    Cosmetic until the whole underside of your car is covered in rust and your floorboards aren't solid anymore
