ABSTRACT:
An automotive air bag cover is provided having a decorative applique preform bonded thereto completely about a pair of flap portions of a front panel of the cover. The air bag cover is manufactured from plastic and the front panel is adapted to enclose an uninflated automotive air bag. The front panel includes inner and outer surfaces. Side panels are further provided and are connected to and extend rearwardly from the front panel. The decorative applique preform is bonded to the entire outer surface of the front panel except for the flap portions. Seams are provided for permitting the air bag to inflate and exit the front panel. The decorative applique preform is bonded to the front panel adjacent the seams in a non-overlapping fashion such that the decorative applique preform does not interfere with exit or inflation of the air bag.
