The extension is formed of a cover stock (104) material and a substrate (102). The body portion and the extension (110) are formed during the same molding operation. According to one exemplary embodiment, the cover stock material (104) is positioned into a mold (200), the mold (200) is reconfigured to bend an edge of the cover stock material (104) inward, and a resin is injected into the mold (200) to form the substrate.

La présente invention se rapporte à un panneau de garnissage, qui comprend une partie corps et un prolongement. Le prolongement est placé sur le pourtour de la partie corps, et est destiné à fixer le panneau de garnissage sur le véhicule. Le prolongement est formé d'un matériau de couverture et d'un substrat. La partie corps et le prolongement sont formés lors d'une même opération de moulage. Un mode de réalisation exemplaire de l'invention consiste : à placer le matériau de couverture dans un moule ; à reconfigurer le moule de façon à courber vers l'intérieur un bord du matériau de couverture ; et à injecter une résine dans le moule afin de former le substrat.
