I got mine through the dealer Mark Miller and it was 7000 and had a rental while it was being done. They used a 3rd party.
The paint is fine after, although the fender flairs are not as they are not painted and not covered for the Trailhunter.

No issues getting to the Battery, the only thing that you lose is easy access to the area where the lug wrench/ tire drop extensions reside driver aft cubby. I have moved all that to a bag with my tire repair kit.
I can still access the battery with the fridge box installed.
All installed got the slide in. But have an issue with not measuring and getting things from too many different vendors.
Had to remove Cali Rased shelf. Ad a few temp fixes
Just did a MPG calculation. Did a drive all on pavement ranging about 4000 feet to 9000 feet. Nothing on the molle panels running 91 octane for a bout 130 miles got a flat 18 MPG.
Installed the NYTOP skid plates for lower control arm, lower trailing arm and rear shock mount.
All went well, the only issue is passenger front trailing arm installing the trough bolt washer and nut as no room to get hands in-between the fuel tank skid and frame will need to revisit a cone...
Got the AluCab 3R tent installed swaped the ARB to Prinsu Pro. Fits into my garage as long as i dont put on the MaxTraxs as i found out the conecter from door to opener is below the door.
Got it installed few issues with order of operations i sent them photos as they dont have 4 runner installation instructions yet. I have a few small pieces that unsure of how they mount or are the extra.
I worked at a small motorcycle shop building customs so we tried system. although its been 20ish years since I used Eastwoods system so there may be more improvements. prep and good oven. Powder gets all over. we ended up just outsourcing all the power coating.
