Integrated Forks with Standard Headset - How does it look
I have a Cane Creek S3 Headset (non-integrated obviously). The S3 is lower profile than the C series headsets. There are good deals on the Ouzo Pro Integrated model, but how will it look on the S3 headset. It may be the larger fork crown has the same diameter as the outside of the headset cup. But then of course even if the fork matched to the headset cup, it would but be fatter than the headtube above it. I'm having a tough time picturing if it will look OK.
Does anyone have pics of integrated forks with standard headsets for comparison. I couldn't find anything searching.

It's not that bad. Check out this picture of the integrated Flyte CR3 fork on the standard CK headset.

isn't that how every bike with a carbon fork looked before integrated headsets came in? The crown is wider than the head tube?
What about the semi-integrated setup offered by Columbus?
