Emacs / Cx 3 / Extra Long Vertical Panel

I'm at Emacs. I have a window setup with Cx 3 (so there is a vertical bar that splits two buffers.)

Right now, what separates the two buffers is the only "|" char.

What I would prefer for my vertical split is what looks like "|" - that is, I want a buffer with two spaces on either side of the vertical panel.

Is there an easy way to build this?

Thank!

It seems that this basically does the trick, although you will also get margins on the far left and right sides of the frame; therefore, this is not strictly for the window divider.

(setq-default left-margin-width 2)         
(setq-default right-margin-width 2)

The part I'm not sure about is the effect it has on the minibuffer.

setq nil minibuffer-setup-hook, .
