First, I have to say we only recommend direct fit parts. Now, anything is possible. However, is it worth the effort is the question. The change you are suggesting is going to cause several issues with computers, sensors, mounts, wiring harnesses... Can it be done, yes, but is it worth the effort? I would say no.
