Can I modify an FM BCB yagi for 2m use?

I get occasional e-mails from MCM Electronics, pushing a variety of
products, and every once in a while, something catches my eye. This
morning, they were advertising aÂ*Four Element Directional Outdoor FM
AntennaÂ*(see photo at right) for $25.Â*

This seems like it would be a good deal, if it could be modified to operate
on 2m. Have any of you ever tried this? It seems to me that all youd have
to do is shorten the elements a little bit.

By comparison, a four-element, 2m Yagi from Â*ARROW Antenna costs about $80.
