Be careful if you order a cold air intake from Paragon if you own an HTC, mine is a 2026. After a couple hours of cussing, complaining and throwing things around the garage, we came to the conclusion they sent the wrong intake. It was for a coupe!!! Then I did a little digging and found they indeed sent the wrong one. When I finally got hold of them, by the way you can't call them, you have to send them a message and they will call you. When I did talk to them they admitted they didn't have one to fit an HTC. So they wanted to have me buy a carbon fiber one for $1,600 dollars. I was to say the least pissed off. Why would I want a carbon fiber cold air intake that no-one would ever see? But on a positive note, they did send me a prepaid shipping label to send it back. AND...I absolutely love the Paragon touring exhaust we installed. It sounds amazing!!!!!
Paragon has a good reputation on this forum, looks like they made it right for you in the end
Not completely. I still don't have a cold air intake, and taking the wrong one out and putting the stock one back in is to say the least a royal P.I.T.A.!! I'm not sure I'll be putting a cold air intake in any time soon. Since I have the high wing on my HTC we decided it would be easier to remove the rear bumper to do the job. With the HTC it's a pretty involved process. It's probably much easier on a coupe because you don't have the problem with raising and lowering the roof to get to all the screws, nuts and bolts. I'm a pretty big guy and thankfully my friend is smaller and was able to crawl up onto the engine to reach the intake. Like I said a real P.I.T.A.!!
