Abstract

A module for mounting on a vehicle body and closing an outer skin of the vehicle body comprises at least one part made of metal that in an installed state of the module forms at least a portion of the outer skin. The module further comprises a plastic layer which is connected with the metal part and with which the module rests at the vehicle body. An electrically conductive contact element is provided that is connected with the metal part in an electrically conductive manner and is attached to the plastic layer. The contact element has an exposed section with regard to the plastic layer, the exposed section serving for making electrical contact with the vehicle body. There is further proposed a method of producing such a module.
