Default unibody panel repair

Both rear quarters have cancer, and i need to cut it out now before it engulfs the entire car. Anyways, i have yet to do body work on any unibody cars, so i don't know if its alright to just go cutting stuff off. Lastly, has anybody ever tried any of the panel adhesives availible?? i'm kinda short for time, and welding in patch panels is a friggin chore. On a side note, plastic rocker panels are the best invention ever.

panel glue works better than welding. welding heats up the metal and weakins it. go with the 3m panel bonder
