John is the friendliest and most professional in the Car modification world. He believes in doing the job right and knows many techniques that others just don’t care to learn. Attention to detail should be John’s mission statement. If you want the best then pay for the best ->John Marcum. He has done window tinting and complex audio systems on a couple of my vehicles and a few of my friends as well.

John had worked on several cars I have owned and well as several cars of friends and family. We have had services performed ranging from window film application to entire sound system overhauls. Each project has been handled with absolute quality and meticulous attention to detail. I do not hesitate to fully recommend Shade Sound & Security to friends and family. This is the only shop in the Raleigh area I trust with window film and sound system upgrades on my vehicles.

The quality of John's work is beyond anything you will find with other companies. He takes the time and effort of educating himself on the construction of your specific car to ensure his work is done to perfection. His communication exceeds expectations every time. My husband and I have used him for many projects over the last 10 years and won't trust anyone else!

John was recommended by a family friend. From the moment I called, I knew John was different than anyone I could work with. He is passionate about what he does and explains his process and reasoning behind things. We walked through a few more details when I dropped my car off with him. He is extremely through and has great suggestions. When I got my car back, I was impressed at the quality job and high attention to detail. It’s because of this that I’d recommend seeing John for tinting/ audio needs. I’ve sent friends and my family has had multiple cars done by John.

There is no one better. I've taken all of our vehicles to him over the last 7 years for tint and more recently audio installs. John is the definition of meticulous and makes sure every customer is satisfied. If you want the cheapest and poor quality, go somewhere else. If you want quality work at a fair price talk to John. Communication is fast and efficient as well.

The most complex project yet.
I've had John tackle several projects for me, but this was by far the most complicated. He installed a new head unit, laser / radar detection and front / rear cameras. Becuase my previous system had so many proprietary pieces, the new head unit was a bit of a dice roll as we didn't know how the new unit was going to work with the new components and the pre-exiting amp and speakers. John prepared me up front with several alt solutions as backup plans, but ultimately was able to make the primary plan work and deliver earlier than promised. I couldn't be happier. The

John, does a remarkable job. He has worked on my cars for years. Just got a Tesla Model Y and John was the only one in town that new how to direct wire a Valentine One to the Tesla. He also put the front visor tint strip on which looks incredible! Will continue to use him!
