Looking for xb9s"L" parts or the suspension off an 12SCG

I want my bike to sit lower because I think it really sets the xb9s apart.
Also, what if I just bought another set of stock forks and cut them? Not really what I want to do, but if I'll get the same effect why not. I think i can adjust the rear shock enough to not have to change it.
Any info or opinions are greatly appreciated.
I originally wanted to do this upgrade after I saw a xb9sl and dayumm it looked good. But since a woman pulled out in front of me and jacked my front suspension up anyway. I might as well change it how I want. Please if anybody has these components they'd like to sale I'd appreciate it

vid shows what's involved, you'll need the rear shock, forks, side stand and lower front clamp.

by the way, I have the yellow suspension on mine, and didn't know it was the "Low" spring, I've had my bike since the summer of '06 and never knew 'til now, duh...I'm 5'11 and my bike handles well, but don't know what the "standard" height 9s feels like:( now I gotta find someone near by to try it on and see if there's a change to be made by switching from the yellow to blue suspension...damn, another thing to get maybe?

I'm 6ft and the xb9s is the right heighth. I just love the look of the "L". If you ever want to trade suspension components PM me:D
