^^Definitely your best option. Damn I didn't see the peeling paint in the pics you posted the other week. Between this and the scratch in the hood you aren't having too much luck with your finish.

OUCH! I've never seen rust on a GA before.
Definitely get it to a shop before it gets worse, we had to replace both of the rear quarter panels on our chevelle due to rust.

You should've seen the back end of mine in November :lol: You'd have a heart attack.
Anyways, as far as rust damage, if you have the tools, you can usually fix it yourself. You would have to strip the paint, sand blast the door to remove the rust, do paint prep, and repaint the car. I'm going to bet you do not have this, so you would probably need to resort to a professional.

How is it that you live in MN and never seen rust on a grand am before? Mine has started to rust, and im in NY. So we both have snow, salt and such. But yea take care of that before it spreads.
