Abstract
The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a coated plastic part (1) intended to be integrated into a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, the coated plastic part including a base part comprising a raised section (6), and a sheet (3) comprising a useful surface (11), the method comprising a step of creating (102, 201) at least one flap (12) in the useful surface, a positioning step (103, 202) in which the sheet is positioned opposite a shaping tool (15) comprising a raised area (14) of a complementary shape to the raised section (6), a shaping step (104, 203), in which the sheet is pressed against the shaping tool (15), and a joining step (105, 204) in which the sheet and the base part are held against each other so as to facilitate the rigid connection of the sheet and the base part.
