Thinking as a buyer, I wouldn't care if it was sectioned as long as it was done very neatly and it was structurally as good as new. Nice welding, no rivets, no excess undercoat. Less obtrusive work can be better at times.

You may wish to see the work before it is painted or undercoated, this should set the tone that you care how it is done and that you will only accept a properly done repair. One that looks correct and is structurally sound.

Good luck!!!
