And blimey [MENTION=448872]CyclesMakaron[/MENTION] you are observant, top skills. I never noticed that and I had my two Eddy's with differing deacls sat right next to each other.
At the end of the day it would be a fairly easy workaround and of course could be changed up if you procure a real fork.

I have a slightly similar dilemma, but mine is already painted, be forewarned that some here have found it offensive in more ways than one, I however have no problem with it.

Mocked up with DA and Rotor cranks, have a Campy SR 11 crank that I may try too
