Default Rustler Front Body Post Heightening

i have a question about a suggestion i once saw made where the person said that by flipping the front body mounts upside down and remounting the posts back ontop is a quick way get them up a little higher.

its looks simple enough but i wanted to ask if this is safe and weather i will be affecting performance / handling in a negative at all by doing this ....
please see attachment pic below ....
Thanks all.

Can't see why this should affect the performance in any way other than a bit higher centre of gravity. After all it is a basher, not a racecar
