you dont have to weld them. there are a **** ton of auto body adhesives being used now for metal to metal bond that have been proven to be stronger than welds. everytime we fill them at work we glue in the metal. hell we put on a bed side the other day with adhesive. we shaved the spoiler off my ej1 about 6 years back by gluing in the metal and i still havent had any problems or any indications that there used to be holes there. and glue wont heat and warp any panels.
