no it's not worth it.
The immeasurable increase wont translate into enough $$ to justify the cost.
Also, the reduction in ride quality and instant depreciation in value cant be recovered.

But do what you want.
a body kit would do more good and gain the same if not more "slight" increase in mpg. AND (most importantly) not hurt the quality of the ride.

Airing up the tires to 40+ psi would probably give you more mpg than lowering. (and that is free!)
