Hot temp platform approach

Hello,

I like to calculate mi NPA profile to correct for hot OAT just like i do in cold weather, this changes the indicated altitude over the FAF to read below published, how legal is this?, I'm sure many instructors wont like it.
What i do to avoid this is to change the flight path angle by .2 degrees or so, though id like to stick to the 3 deg.

I'd appreciate inputs, thanks
