6x9's in kick panels?

[muddpile]

I will not be cutting my kicks, but rather building fibreglass kick panels that mount right over the original kicks with a whole lot of velcro or some sort of adhesive. The 6x9's I am considering are not too terribly beefy and should not stick out more than 2"-3". I like the added cone area of a 6x9 vs. 6.5" driver, plus the fact that most 6x9's are 3 way, and provide a little bit better midrange response in comparison to the 6.5" components. I may not do this, but it is a thought, and a 6x9 up front in the kicks just seems like such a good idea to me that I can't ignore it. The only concern I have is that there may not be enough airspace down there to get good bass out of them and I will have to run a hidden pipe to another added volume of airspace under the dash, but I won't worry about that until I figure out if I'm going to do this or not.
