Thumbs down Rust

I urge everyone to check into this on your own cars. I just noticed that the rubber weather stripping has split on my driver's side door window frame (right above the side-view mirror), and has been letting water in. I have no idea how long it has been like this, but it has already started rotting underneath the weather stripping. F'n blows because I have NO rust on my car other than that spot. Anyway, just a heads up to all of you. Anyone know what is involved in fixing this, and how much it might cost at a body shop? I have attached a crappy cell phone pic for you.

Re: Rust

I noticed that with my friends' 7thgens but, luckly I dont have it on mine. And this year, when I rustproofed my car, I also sprayed in that area as well.
