d8s with duplicate sides gang
Honestly I'm sure this is the best solution. I get that a d4 is the obvious choice for something that should have a 1/4 chance of happening but a d8 with 4 numbers twice would be the most appropriate.
The only downside I can see is that a d8 and a d8/4 would be easy to mix up at first glance.
You don't even need a special die for this. Just roll a d8 and subtract 4 if it's 5-8. Just like using a d6 as a d3.
I always divide by two and round up for d3
