Our Story

Ride N’ Shine was founded by Eric and Kelsey Carlson in 2021. Eric grew up with a passion for cars and has been in the automotive industry for over twenty years. A natural byproduct of loving cars (& eventually boats/RVs) was a desire to keep them looking nice and outfitted in the latest accessories. This motivation to keep things in “like new” condition ultimately led to the inception of Ride N’ Shine. The company then grew to include ceramic coating, paint protection film, window tinting, truck accessories and more! Ride N’ Shine is a fully licensed and insured LLC that proudly reports to CarFax, is a 3M certified installer, and a proud SEMA member.

Eric and Kelsey live in Arvada, Colorado with their three kids, two cats, and silver lab. When they are not working on making your ride shine, they prioritize adventuring with their kids – traveling all over the country to camp, boat, and wake surf.
