Naw, Im fine as it is now. I dont want an SS because everyone and their grandma has one. Sunoco is getting rather popular too....and I just love how the plain medium sized cowl looks. A 2.5 would be a waste of time, if I get one I wanna get the big one 
Ill probably end up getting it anyway

i know this one well. I'm 5'3" and have a 3" cowl. I can see, well except the right front corner ..... After about a week you dont notice it anymore. People who get in the car with me get a little freaked out but I'm fine with it 
.
IMO the 4" is too big. Not for vision reasons but they just look weird on the car. I love the 3" but i am bias.

nothin beats the old school big cowl look!

I dd my car and i get compliments daily, kids from 5yrs old pointing all the way up to old *** 88 yr old people in their huge crown vics givin me a huge thumbs up.

4" too big? And here I was thinking the 6 was too big...
Yeah, I'm probably gonna get me a 4
And speaking of issues, I used to drive a 79 Trans Am when I was 15....and 4 foot 8. My dad had to weld the brackets and modify them to make the seat sit higher
