The best way would be to cut out ALL of the rusted out parts and reweld on a new sheet metal. Or you can buy replacement rear quarter panels and have them welded in.

the only way I've ever done...
cut the metal about 1-2" around the rust till all the rust is gone.
Then weld in new metal, shape it till you need minimal bondo, bondo, sand smooth, prime, wetsand, and paint.

kind of crappy site, but their products are good. I ordered left and right rear quarter panel replacements for my hatch.
they have a general guide for installing here: http://rustrepair.com/11_steps.htm
Kind of shows you how to do it.
Anyone ever use JB weld on stuff like this? Not sure how it would hold up..
hope that helps
