A method of manufacturing a laminated vehicle trim panel includes
initially positioning a flexible first material within a mold cavity of a
first mold portion. A second mold portion for closing the cavity of the
first mold portion is then provided. A second material is introduced into
the mold cavity to form a substrate, such that the substrate and the
first material form a laminated vehicle trim panel. A portion of the
substrate between the outer peripheral edge of the substrate and a second
portion of the substrate defines a brim. The brim has a mounting feature
for attaching the laminated vehicle trim panel to a second panel.
