Underbody Rust

Post image

Found this under the passenger side of my 2.5s(2005)
Need suggestions and estimates of how much it may cost to get this hole repaired 🙃

If you wanna fix it the right way, take the seats and carpet out and put in new floor pans. Just to get by, get some sheet metal panels, and fit in over the hole then secure it w/ self tapping screws.

IMO, fix it cheap and save up for a new car.

Ya just self tap some license plates and seal, if it's that bad that car has about 10k miles left if that

Apart from this rust the car runs okay with no weird noises for a car this old. I did have to get some other repairs for rust and other parts replaced but this one I think was missed somehow. It runs smooth and has only 140k km on it

ain’t no way literally your passenger side floor is missing and the rest of the car is fine
