While I dont have all the specifics, I rode with a guy earlier this year who had a '04 superglide with a wideglide front end. I liked the look and have been curious myself.

Yes, and no. The stock HD WG front end is longer than other Dyna front ends, because of the increased rake. If you just bolt it on, the front of the bike will be up too high and look goofy. However, if you add some lowering springs and cartridge emulators, it will look good and performa well.
