Default Interior Trim: Paragon vs Jogon; Quality & Pricing

I know you get what you pay for in most cases and I'm reasonable when it comes to pricing and quality. However, does the quality of paragon interior CF trim pieces (fit & finish), really command a 367% price increase over the same Jogon CF interior trim pieces? I'm only looking at two items, one for the steering wheel and the 3-piece dash trim. Personal experiences with this products would be appreciated. Additionally, if you know of other quality options let me know. And as always, pictures of your trim (as these are popular over the OEM brushed aluminium) are welcome.

I did my complete interior with Jogon. Matches OEM CARBON FIBER .You cannot tell the difference. All parts fit perfectly. I highly recommend them. My 2 friends did their C - 8 with no problems .

Default More money is not more better.

Virtually all aftermarket C8 parts are made in any one of a host of ubiquitous Chinese factories. Including OEM. There is no branding. All are anonymous. The difference in price is 2 factor. How many hands touch the part on its way from China to you. And how greedy each of those hands is. I have no experience with either vendor in your post. So no dog in this fight. Having said that, Jogon has a lot of positive Forum posts. And if you read their customer feedback on amazon or eBay, it is excellent. No different with Paragon. So the real difference is price. And only that. End of the day, there is an element of risk you can't avoid.

I appreciate the response. I do have small jogon pieces already. But the ones I’m looking at now are well larger, and any imperfections would be noticeable.

Good choice. I don't have any interior Jogon pieces, but I did purchase my engine dress up pieces. The two over the headers from Jogon about 1.5 years ago. Huge savings over oem and they are flawless and look just like they did when I got them 1.5 years ago. Friend has OEM covers that he bought with car and they are now golden yellow.

Sure sounds like a lot of positive comments for the Jogon products. Nice that they are less expensive too.

Yeah is quiet the price gap. Especially when comparing just two relatively small trim pieces.

Like mentioned above, they all come from the same place. The US distributors just increase the price by 2,3,4x.

I have a lot of carbon fiber in all of my vehicles at various price points & honestly almost all the cheaper pieces look better than the more expensive pieces. Jogon pieces are excellent quality.

I bought both brands and compared them and IMO they both came out of the same factory. I went with Jogon.

Paragon is a top-notch supplier of a myriad of parts, information and services. Great company.

Jogon is a top-notch manufacturer of carbon fiber products. They have exceptional fit, finish, packaging and quality control. Jogon's parts are better than the other CF companies in China or Mexico. Their direct-purchase pricing is generally really good. Some of the older parts are incredible values. I have purchased many things from Jogon and highly recommend them.
