I personally do not like the I force max badging
I-FORCE MAX Badge
- Thread starter TJK
- Start date
It is literally the only chrome on the car. Obviously an afterthought.
You badge haters have to admit, ours at least looks better than on the Taco/4Runner:
It would be cool if I could find someone who could make these in 3D

Definitely, IforceMax badge way better on taco and 4runner, no doubt. However, new gen taco, tundra and 4runner body designs didn't win me over (but all different beasts). Keeping my 3rd gen taco for life (owned 4 of them). IMO 250 LC body design is just perfect. I'm okay with having badge envy

Mine came right off with a little heat from a heat gun (you can use a hair drier) and my finger nails. I wiped off the left over glue with some wd40 and no scars on the car. It's like they put that badge on there to mess with us.
Can you post a picture ? Sounds like best solution.
Yeah, heat it up and it pulls right off. Then you just rub the adhesive off. No need for chemicals or anything. I only used floss and a heat gun ‘cause I didn’t want to damage the badge. But if you’re just gonna throw it away it’s easy to just pull off.
And mine had the blackout kit from the port. I paid for it apparently. Oh well.
So much time with so little to do...
Thanks I ordered it from Toyota last night.
Wouldn’t all LC’s have 4WD back then? I’m thinking this isn’t a lot different from a marketing perspective than putting up the iForceMax badge nowadays. But. I will say your badge swap looks awesome & I much prefer it!
They did all have 4WD and you’re right that the badge was then just what the Force Max badge is today. I have no hate for the iForceMax badge. I just like this one better because it’s heritage. Seems to fit with all the other heritage cues on the new LC. I wanted this badge on the rig, but I took the iForceMax badge off because it would be too busy with both
I just have to be the contrarian, but yes I certainly agree with you & love the heritage badging! This is a mod I’d make for sure if I buy an LC. Particularly in the TD color as yours.
I removed mine easily. I used a hair dryer on it for about 2 minutes to heat up the adhesive backing, then I used dental floss to "saw" through the adhesive--took less than a minute. The residual adhesive left behind was easily removed using Goof-Off (available at Home Depot for about $5). I looks cleaner with it removed, I find.
