Customisable ships eh? There's a novel idea...
Do you mind if i jump down your throat before the modding bods do?
Seriously though, it's an interesting idea. Very popular with those who haven't got the time or the knowledge to build their own ships i imagine.
But from what i've heard (i haven't played it, not really my thing) Impossible Creatures is pretty much a standard strategy game, with an impressive 'customisable units' gimmick and a b-movie plot.
It's hard to imagine what such customisable ships would add to FL, which has ships from weedy weaklings to proverbial brick outhouses. Good as it would be to zip round in space hot-wheels, the novelty would wear off fairly quickly i fear, leaving you with nothing more exciting than irritatingly long shipyard transactions.
(edit, damn cheap work keyboards, why is my 'o' so slow?)
