As to your other question about how it'd look. It should be fine, I'd think. If I'm not mistaken, these vehicles have a bit of a rake to them anyways.

Depends. It'll put more stress on front end parts, so if you're OK with possibly having to replace those more often, then it's fine.

Ball joints, CV's, tie rods, etc. From what I understand they're all under a little more stress.
