Anything is fixable Captain Bump.

I'm in now way a bodyman, only reason I'm posting is so you won't have to bump this again.

What "I" would do and again I dont do bodywork would be to pull the fender so you can get a clearer look how bad it is. I've seen a few 92-95s at work rusting in the same area and a little cleaning up and some seam sealer fix them right up. But basically try and get the best view you can and cut out all the rusted metal and replace. Then paint and reassemble.

well its actually a crx the civic in the sig is my bros, and as far as i can sheee the ruse is that 3 hole mount for the wiper arm and goes under neath the hood hinge considering one of the bolts just spins freely and its not stripped
