@PranK to help you feel better, this is what happens when you run two of the big ones and have a heavy foot... -

Nice, saves me ranting about how painful it is painting a roof with rattle cans lol. Personally, I wouldn't chase the rust back any further. What happens if your 30cm deep into your roof and still going? This is why I was suggesting fiberglass, the holes are quite large but easy to patch with fibreglass. There will be a million youtube videos of people doing this shonky job you can check out for a visual. Once the holes are patched with fibreglass, you can rebuild the corner with body filler (like the last guy did). Indeed, its a shit go -
Filler will set solid and water tight. If you need to, get in around the inside with silicon between the window and edge of the car, but only if that spot is leaking.

I have a decent compressor and spray gun. I haven't done anything this big but between it and the bonnet the paint currently is absolutely terrible and there's no chance I'd make it worse. Ok so should I cut back the top flap to get to the end of the rust? The bottom bit looks bad but feels strong still, even with the holes. Will filler seal the holes? Or should I put some silicon in them first? Love your work guys, thanks. Can't tell you how bummed I am to have found this. Wish I'd never looked and I'd still be happy! -

Yeah this can't be overstated, this job is crazy hard even for a professional.
