ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing components such as vehicle wheels which include a polystyrene base molded in the general configuration of the ornamental face and a plastic coating molded to the base and mechanically secured thereto to prevent separation. The plastic overlay is moded to the base through a low-pressure injection molding process in order to maintain the integrity of the molded base. The plastic coating flows around portions of the base to provide secure attachment between the base and overlay. The method may be used to manufacture various automotive components including vehicle wheel covers, dams and spoilers.
