That's exactly the same as what i'm doing, and the same reason why i'm doing it to cut down on the road noise and a nicer finish, i don't like seeing exposed chassis rail in the foot wells.

Why double skin then, why not just skin on top of the chassis rails? I know they are more exposed but I'd prefer that rather than creating a water trap.

If your double skinning the floor you'll have to redesign the pedal box as well.
