LambdaMetaFactory boxing / unboxing parameters and return types

I've got the following two methods:

  public static <T, R> IGetter<T, R> createGetterViaMethodname( final Class<T> clazz, final String methodName,
                                                                final Class<R> fieldType )
      throws Throwable
  {
    final MethodHandles.Lookup caller = MethodHandles.lookup();
    final MethodType methodType = MethodType.methodType( fieldType );
    final MethodHandle target = caller.findVirtual( clazz, methodName, methodType );
    final MethodType type = target.type();
    final CallSite site = LambdaMetafactory.metafactory(
        caller,
        "get",
        MethodType.methodType( IGetter.class ),
        type.erase(),
        target,
        type );

    final MethodHandle factory = site.getTarget();
    return (IGetter<T, R>) factory.invoke();
  }

  public static <T, I> ISetter<T, I> createSetterViaMethodname( final Class<T> clazz, final String methodName,
                                                                final Class<I> fieldType )
      throws Throwable
  {

    final MethodHandles.Lookup caller = MethodHandles.lookup();
    final MethodType methodType = MethodType.methodType( void.class, fieldType );
    final MethodHandle target = caller.findVirtual( clazz, methodName, methodType );
    final MethodType type = target.type();
    final CallSite site = LambdaMetafactory.metafactory(
        caller,
        "set",
        MethodType.methodType( ISetter.class ),
        type.erase(),
        target,
        type );

    final MethodHandle factory = site.getTarget();
    return (ISetter<T, I>) factory.invoke();
  }

including the following two interfaces:

@FunctionalInterface
public interface IGetter<T, R>
{
  @Nullable
  R get( T object );
}

@FunctionalInterface
public interface ISetter<T, I>
{
  void set( T object, @Nullable I value );
}

This works great for all Class-Types, including the Number-Wrappers for primitive types such as Integer for int. However, if I have a setter that takes an int or a getter that returns an ìnt, it tries passing / returning the Number-Wrapper, resulting in an exception.

What's the correct way to box / unbox this without having to make another method. The reason here is to keep the API clean and simple to use. I am willing to take a small performance hit for the boxing / unboxing here.
