Sheez... that's a cheap fix right there. Get a patch welded in there and do the paint yourself, you won't even touch three digits. :)

I've got the same thing
I've got the same thing, except on the corner. Even the amount of rust. If you want to do it yourself, POR-15 has products that will do the trick. I just went and got an estimate from a highly recommended body shop that specialized in BMWs and they quoted me $250. I'm going to get another quote this weekend probably.
But check it out if you want to take a stab at it yourself:

A good sand blasting, then clean with a good solvent and slap some nice etch primer on there, a layer of urethane and then some black body.
If you've got the tools, that's an hours worth of work.
