1st Gen 4Runner: B-Pillar Badge Restoration?
#62
Registered User
Take a B pillar to an auto parts store and have a look at the plastic clips they sell in the Help! packets. Also purchase some 3M emblem tape.

Are you looking for clips? Rad4Runner just showed the part numbers on his thread, page 26. If you're looking for B Pillars or the emblems keep a check on eBay.

I haven't put mine back on but the consensus is 3M Emblem tape.

Just started on this job. Used thin scraper blade to ease up one end of badge starting at about 70 degrees then dropped the angle when adhesive started to give, sliding blade under and gradually working side to side and then
eventually to full length as badges popped free. Used eucalyptus oil to remove excess adhesive that would not scrape off. This oil slowly softens adhesive but has no effect on plastic of badge. Have ordered silver and gold pens and Testor black gloss. Have to get rid of old paint. Will see how that goes.

SEM Trim black is a great paint to use for any trim. Flows out beautiful, dries fast. Not cheap, about $20 per can but worth it.

Thanks for the extra tip about the SEM paint and CNC badges. Will go the long way as I want to keep it as original as possible. Fortunately SEM paint, Testors gloss black and colour pens all available in Australia. Shipping from
USA very $$$$$. As to reinstalling plastic trim on B pillar, have rigged mine so that it's just a straight push on for all clips. Not pretty but doesn't have to be.
