    $7300 for 2019 nautical blue paint job?

    I washed the 4runner. The only issues are hood, roof and trunk lid and spoiler. I called the original paint guy, who gives lifetime warranty, and got a new quote for $2100 for those items. That's what I'm going to do. I would have done ppf on those areas but the cost would have exceeded the...

    Thank you. I got a quote for a roof and spoiler wrap from one place. Still looking but I think this is the way. Bad thing is they don't prep the bad areas before wrapping.

    So turtlewax hybrid wash and wax ceramic won't protect the body at all. I understand the clear coat will still come off.

    Here is a screen shot. The blue one top has no clear coat.

    The clear coat is gone from top 3/4 and there is ashing on many other areas. I have two other places but I just can't see spending that. It won't get driven any more miles with new paint.

    The paint on my 2019 is trashed. I got quoted $7300 for a paint job and lifetime warranty. Is that a normal price for the Phoenix AZ area?

    Gen 4 to Gen 5 Surprises

    I can tell you when I first started looking at 4runners in 2015, I have two 5th gens now, I found the kdss equipped rode horrible to me. I commented about the ride and the dealership told me it was the kdss. I stayed away from them after that.

    Westcott Lift and UCA

    Did you, by chance, change your tires? I also have their lift, spacer lift they do, and have no issues. Maybe air pressure check? Not trying to hijack your thread.

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Didn't do it today but I have changed power steering fluid on both 18 and 19, coolant on both, transmission pan drain on 18. Still have transmission pan drain on 19, throttle body cleaning and PCV on 18, and diffs and transfer case on 18.

    IMHO 2025 4Runner is a POS

    I sat in one. I'm 6'3" wide shoulders long legs. They did everything possible to make it hurt. Maybe the center console looks cool but my knee will disagree on its function.

    Just figured out why one of my 4runners have destroyed clear coat

    Oh, the clear is gone on probably 70% of the roof.

    Definitely looking into the ppf. If the original nautical blue is a problem maybe cream white or something.

    I found it. That is a great idea but it would need some stripping first. It's really messed up. That would be the cheapest I think.

    I wish it was that easy. Every vehicle she drives has been their lounge. Trust me. I tried. She literally doesn't care about the damage. They are feral cats and have been here for years. They just like her vehicle. I have recently seen a couple of coyotes walk by but I have motion lights...
