No, given the adjustment to cost basis that you need to make, you will have to file Form 8949. You are correct in that your 1099-B will reflect a different cost basis than what you include on your Form 8949; therefore, you need to maintain the documentation supporting your decision to make what you believe is the necessary adjustment. Additionally, Form 8949 is required because your basis was not reported to the IRS.
