Help me find a hood.

I just put a 03-04 Cobra Bumper from American Muscle on my 01 Bullitt, The fitment was perfect and very easy to install. In plans to get the whole car painted soon.
This brings me to my problem, I never really liked the stock hood.
I had a 4" Kaenen on my foxbody it looked great but it was big lol

I'm looking for Front, side profile and over the hood images if you can.
How it fits, It quality of build, does it interfere with the wiper function.
I've been Looking at
VFN 3-inch Cowl Hood
HO Fibertrends 2.5"
Kaenen's Cobra 95R but not sure on the size 2.5, 3, or 4"
Even thought about the 03-04 cobra
or any other hoods you guys have.

My one son is running a Boss 3 inch (I think) hood on his 04, and it looks good, but he has problems when driving the car on the street. The height blocks some of his view of the road, and when he is turning, like in a parking lot, he has trouble judging where the car is, and he has run over a curb or two.

I have a Cervinis hood, and thought I liked my sons better, until I actually got mine on and I drove the car. The quality is top notch (the Boss is very good quality too), and the height presents no problems when driving it. So, I am happy that I bought the Cervini hood. I also have the same Cobra front end from American Muscle and am very happy with the fit and finish.

Wherever the gov't tells me.
Kaenen 3” Cobra R hood. I’ll get some better pics once the weather breaks here in Ohio and it can finally come out again.

Fitment is....eh. I’ve adjusted the hood latch all the way up and it still takes a little coercing to close. The front corners are above the fenders but just slightly. I got a great deal on it but would probably spend the extra for H.O. Fibertrends if I were to do it again.

Kaenen 3” Cobra R hood.

I have narrowed it down to the Kaenen 3" or the HO Fibertrends 2.5"
Been trying to get ahold of someone at Kaenen just to talk with them.
Pricing is about the same now. but then there is the shipping.
In an Ideal world, I wish i could see them side by side. finding pictures is tough.

The 4 inch was too big. I’m 6’3, and couldn’t see a dam thing lol my head was hitting the roof on every bump just from trying to see!! Both 2.5’s were perfect, looked sick, and I can’t say one fit better than the other.
