ABSTRACT:
A trim piece (10) includes a body shape (30) and mold edge (34). A fabric cover (28) covers the body (30). An indent (38) extends along the periphery of the trim piece (10) just below the mold edge (34). A movable die part (56) forces additional fabric (40) into the indent (38) during the mold process. The excess fabric (40) is in tension when the movable die part (56) is retracted but the excess fabric (40) relieves the tension between the indent (38) and the mold edge (34) eliminating the tendency of the fabric cloth (28) to pull back or creep back from the mold edge (34) or the resulting cut line.
