Yes you can, but it could turn out to be allot of work. You might be better off just trimming the springs & spension and adjusting the arms to keep it steerable. If you don't care about being able to steer then don't even worry about any adjusting just cut away. I you look closely here in the third pic you can see I cut out the wheel well to make the car dropped more. I hope this helps.![]() ![]()

Only thing is when you bend it you must heat it up first far from a flame or even boil it and it will bend easily then to set it once you got the position you like dip it in ice cold water. Works pretty good, but play with some strips first before using the real thing because of how thin or thick the parts maybe. Let me know what you think once you have tried it.
