i know for the rear cut
well if done properly it should not weaken your chassis
if you lookunder your seat or at the base of the flooring under the mat you will see the original join (had a corolla that this was done to ). Some cars you also see it on the panel when you open the doors
what they do is sweat these tacks out and they remove the back glass and cut the back post at slightly different heights
Since this is where the car was joined originally you dont realy weaken it you can actually strenghten it if you want
As for line-ing it up so of these garages have computer measuring system
some of the smaller garage well those boys use their eyes and fix the rest with paste
well some people cut anywhere and i beleive this weakens the chassis
remember that guy whose car split in half on the highway
