Abstract
The invention provides a method by which the mold for a molded vehicle component can be engraved with a grain pattern to match the stretched grain pattern of an adjacent vehicle panel covered by a stretched vinyl sheet. According to the method, a grained vinyl sheet is stretched over a model of the vehicle panel so that the grained pattern of the vinyl is distorted. A portion of the vinyl sheet is then severed at the region to be occupied by the molded component and this severed portion of the vinyl sheet is used as a master for engraving the mold for the molded component.
