Real 3D limber holes in Fleet Boats? Possible?

After playing so much with the Uboat mission expansion, I went back to the fleet boat and installed these nice skins

My question is about the limber holes in the hull.
The Uboat model has "real" 3D holes (you can see through them), while the fleet boats have only a black paint one (well, the skins posted in the above link do a good job to re-create a 3d effect).
So my question is: would it be possible to add "real" limber holes to the Gato, Balao etc. models? Does this require to re-model the entire submarine in 3D?????

I am sure Tomi_099 could come up with a wonderful 3D rendition of a fleet boat. His work on the U-Boats is just awesome. Check out his thread.
