Abstract

The invention relates to a composite component and a method of producing such composite component, in particular a car body attachment part for a motor vehicle, which includes an outer skin that is defined by an outer skin foil associated with the motor vehicle. An inner layer made of plastic is applied to a rear side of the outer skin foil by providing a foamed or injection-molded backing. A mounting piece is disposed in a depression of the outer skin foil and is anchored therein. An intermediate foil is situated between the mounting piece and the outer skin foil and prevents, at least in sections, any direct contact between the mounting piece and the outer skin foil.
