ABSTRACT:
A decorative molding for automobiles, providing decorative trim therefor. The molding comprises a first member of polymeric material, a portion of the member being wrapped with a decorative covering of metallized plastic material and the remaining portion of the member covered with a second member of similar polymeric material to encapsulate and protect the ends of the covering. The molding is preferably formed by extruding the first member, wrapping the decorative covering in the form of a strip around a portion of the first member, and extruding the encapsulating member around an uncovered portion of the first member. It is also contemplated that a stabilizing strip be incorporated within the first member by feeding it into the extruder which forms the first member.
