you can send it with heavy grit, hit it with rust prevent. paint, body filler it, and paint it. but it will come back.
or you can pay someone a hefty chunk of change to cut and weld in new panels.

also, OP:
passenger side looks salvageable if you hit it NOW. drivers side is gonna need cut and welded.

Seeing the rust creep up from behind the plastic rocker cover is never good.... It can get pretty ugly behind there. Check out the How to fix your Honda rust thread. I had some rust creeping up from that area and I took off the rocker cover and stabbed the area behind with a screwdriver and it went right through until it looked like Swiss cheese.
