Default Something different springer?

OK, winter is still a ways away, there's plenty of riding yet to do, BUT I'm thinking of winter projects for my 03 Anniversary FXSTS. And budgeting...

I haven't started searching the webz in any detail, and thought I might start here.

Does anyone know of an aftermarket (or OEM? LOL...) source who creates a 2" or 3" over springer fork that retains the *factory profile/look*? I'm NOT looking to rake the neck or install a raked triple tree, just a little longer fork. Not looking to lower the bike, rather, get the look of older choppers with a (slightly) raised front.

MANY Thanks in advance!

Mondo at Denver's Choppers might be a good phone call.
