The looks trump the slight ride change every time bud. Do it!

You should put rollers and rocker rails on though, and be prepared to learn how to drive a lowered car.

Shocks will probably bottom out on even small bumps. Mine did. Got so tired of this that after a couple years went to coilovers and now am very happy with the ride quality.
