An automotive trim part is provided made of a laminated structure generally consisting of a thermoplastic core layer extruded from at least one feedstock derived from recycled material. The feedstock may consist at least partially of vehicle trim part waste from another vehicle, or trim part waste associated with an automotive trim part the same or similar to the part being produced. The core layer is preferably covered by fibrous layers and may be configured for use at least as a portion of a vehicle's wheel well.
