MIC Discrete PAB Cover

Passenger airbag covers are often painted, which is costly and can lead to warranty issues. Traditionally, molded-in-color was not feasible because the TPO material used did not meet Class A surface requirements. A new MIC cover design with a recessed surface and new styling line improves appearance of the tear line eliminated painting and saved 35% of the total cost for these parts. Integrating a new and complex cooling system for both the A and B surfaces helped reduce sinks and gloss variance, while injecting through a rib instead of directly onto the B surface improved aesthetics further.
