    The damaged step was what came with the vehicle from the dealer - seemed like aluminum - I rode a rock pretty hard by accident on a very tight turn - didn’t make it through @Stormtrooper1488

    Took the 4runner to a paintless dent repair shop to remove a dent on my passenger-side quarter panel. I was impressed with the work they did and they were able to remove it.

    Installed the 4Runner Lifestyle molle panels and shelf. Gotta say I love it. Freed up a ton of space in my truck vault and behind my back seats. I also installed an inexpensive Amazon Starlink mini mount until I figure out my exact plan for my mini.

    I will have to get back to you on that. Ive only driven it around the block a few times since install. The rack empty had no rattles on highway/county roads. After I installed a few things I picked up a rattle which ended up being the few things I added. Ive since used rubber washers behind the mounting points and seems good to go.

    I have been getting all my molle panels from Orangeboxx Fabricator, I like how they can customize color and design if you don't like the basic ones. They also offer molle panel for the the hatch window.

    Had a man about my age in a white 5th gen,
    flag me down asking me about my tire carrier….
    We pulled over, he asked questions and took pics. Directed him to SSO and inquire about building him one.
    First time being flagged down for questioning!
