The Curt hitch, part # C12107 for your 2017 Toyota Camry V6 does require some modifications but at least most of it isn't visible. The heat shield above the exhaust needs some minor trimming which you can see in the video I attached at around the 6:08 mark.
Some models of the Camry have an underbody panel that does need to be removed. The attached picture shows which panel I'm referring to. Also the 2017 models have frame brackets that need to removed.
