It Wasnt Me!
rub all the surface rust off, sand paper/wet n dry/grinder (bit harsh), treat it with some rust treating stuff cover in stone chip, and paint i'd reckon. sure someone will correct me if im wrong

And on top of that paint it VERY well, then lots of underseal on the underneath, cut it out properly and prep the new plates and they will last years. The only way to totally remove rust is to remove the whole panel, not very easy with the floor though
