Body Rust
2004 EX 4-Door:
Bought my car used and found some rust at the top of the windshield, passenger side. Hasn't broken through the paint yet, but it will soon. Wondering if anyone had any info/suggestions as to what I can do or where I can take it so they can cut that portion out and repaint. Wouldn't mind getting rid of the scuffs on the front bumper too. Would do it myself, but I live in the city and I don't have my tools with me (just moved). I live in Honolulu, Hawaii, so ya, if you can refer me somewhere good and cheap, let me know! Was considering Macco. Are they any good? Appreciate any help!

Re: Body Rust
You're going to want a body shop to look at that... happened on my old 7th gen and it was from when the windshield was replaced. They must've scraped up the metal and didn't put any paint over it. To get rid of the rust, they have to remove the windshield, sandblast it, and then paint. For mine it cost approx $400.
