The product represents RC4WD's commitment to delivering premium detail parts that elevate your build quality without breaking the bank.
Scale modelling enthusiasts understand that authenticity comes down to the details. These Hilux 4WD emblems capture that essence perfectly, offering crisp, professional-looking stainless-steel badging that catches the light and draws attention to your build.

What sets this emblem set apart is not just the materials or craftsmanship, but the finishing process that transforms them from raw metal into stunning focal points on your RC car. The included finishing tips guide you through a simple but effective process that results in professional-looking results any modeller can achieve with basic tools and materials.
Key Features
- Premium Stainless Steel Construction — These emblems are manufactured from genuine stainless steel, ensuring durability and longevity that matches the quality of your RC build. Stainless steel resists corrosion and maintains its metallic finish even after extended outdoor use, meaning your investment in scale detail stays looking great for years to come.
- Ultra-Thin 0.4mm Profile — At just 0.4 millimetres thick, these emblems are light enough not to affect your RC vehicle's handling or weight distribution, yet substantial enough to handle the finishing process without warping. The thin profile ensures they sit flush and realistic against your body panels, matching the proportions of genuine vehicle badging.
- Dual Emblem Set — You receive two complete emblem sets in each package, allowing you to badge both sides of your RC Hilux or Mojave body for complete authenticity, or keep a spare for future builds or replacements.
- Easy-to-Finish Design — These emblems are engineered specifically to be finished by modellers of any skill level. The flat surface accepts paint easily, and the raised lettering reveals the metallic base when sanded, creating professional contrast effects without requiring special tools or techniques.
- Compatible with Multiple Platforms — These emblems fit RC4WD Mojave and Hilux hard bodies, including popular options like Trail Finder 2 Mojave bodies, making them a versatile upgrade for various 1/10 scale crawler builds in the UK RC community.
- Professional Finishing Options — The finishing process is straightforward and achieves stunning results: spray your chosen colour across the entire emblem, lightly sand the raised lettering with fine-grit sandpaper to expose the metal, then polish for enhanced shine and contrast. This simple method produces results that look professionally applied.
Technical Performance
These emblems represent the intersection of authentic scale detail and practical engineering. Manufactured from stainless steel, they provide genuine durability without the weight penalty that could affect your RC 4WD's handling characteristics. The 0.4mm thickness is precisely calibrated—thick enough to resist bending during normal installation and detailing work, yet thin enough to conform naturally to body panel curves without creating unsightly gaps or shadows. The material choice ensures these emblems won't rust or tarnish, maintaining their metallic appearance through countless hours of trail running, rock crawling, and outdoor RC activity. For UK modellers who invest significant time and resources into their RC builds, these emblems represent the kind of quality detail upgrade that distinguishes a carefully curated scale model from a stock vehicle. The engineering behind the emblem design ensures that the lettering sits at the optimal height for the finishing process—neither too deep to sand cleanly nor too shallow to create dramatic contrast once detailed.

Finishing Guide
RC4WD provides comprehensive guidance for achieving professional results with these emblems. Begin by spraying the entire emblem in your chosen colour—black is recommended for maximum contrast and visual impact. Once the paint has dried completely and you have achieved even, opaque coverage, use fine-grit sandpaper (approximately 2000-grit, or the Tamiya V-TAM87060 equivalent) to lightly sand the raised "Hilux 4WD" lettering. Sand carefully and gradually until the black paint is removed from the raised text, revealing the bright stainless-steel beneath. This creates the characteristic dual-tone effect seen on genuine vehicle badging. For the final step, apply metal polish to enhance the shine of the exposed metal and create dramatic contrast between the painted recesses and the polished steel lettering. Handle the emblems with care during the finishing process, as the thin stainless steel can bend if flexed excessively, though normal handling during installation poses no risk.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC 4WD models are these emblems compatible with? — These emblems are designed for RC4WD Mojave and Hilux hard bodies, including the popular Trail Finder 2 Mojave variants. They are specifically engineered for 1/10 scale vehicles and will not fit other scale classes or brands without modification.
- How difficult is the finishing process for these emblems? — The finishing process is straightforward and achievable by modellers of any experience level. It requires only basic materials: spray paint in your chosen colour, fine-grit sandpaper (2000-grit recommended), and metal polish. The process involves three simple steps: paint, sand, and polish. Most modellers complete the finishing in under an hour per emblem set.
- Will these emblems rust or tarnish over time? — No. These emblems are manufactured from stainless steel, which is naturally corrosion-resistant. Even after extended outdoor use, trail running, or exposure to water during creek crossing activities, stainless steel maintains its metallic integrity without rusting, tarnishing, or requiring protective coatings.
- Can I apply these emblems without finishing them? — While you can install the raw metal emblems, the finishing process is what transforms them into striking visual details. Without painting and sanding, they appear as plain metal and lack the professional appearance that makes them worthwhile. The recommended finishing process takes minimal time and yields significantly better results.
- How many emblems do I receive, and is that enough for my build? — Each Z-S0930 package contains two complete Hilux 4WD emblem sets, which is sufficient to badge both sides of your RC Hilux or Mojave body. If you plan to emblem multiple vehicles or want spares for future builds, you can order additional sets.
- What tools do I need to install and finish these emblems? — Installation requires no special tools—just your chosen adhesive (many modellers use CA glue or epoxy for secure mounting). For finishing, you'll need spray paint (any hobby-grade paint works), fine-grit sandpaper (2000-grit), and metal polish. Most UK RC modellers already have these items in their workshop.
- Are these authentic to the real Toyota Hilux badging? — Yes. RC4WD designs these emblems to match the proportions and styling of genuine Toyota Hilux "4WD" badging found on real vehicles, ensuring your 1/10 scale model maintains authentic appearance and detail accuracy.
