Yes!! It's the best of both worlds, still gonna have a clean looking full width front without completely trashing your fenders. My votes in for this, get to it :flamer:

Cut tunnel out front to back.. That tar sucks to deal with but when it's cold it comes out fairly easy!!

Nice project. It looks like you may be done with it already, but, if you put dry ice on that coating stuff for about a minute in a spot and pop it with a dead blow hammer it comes right off. Did my whole runner in a couple hours. Then just clean the residue with brake cleaner and its perfect. The darker area shown is where that stuff was in my cargo area.
