A cover part for a vehicle, especially an underbody cover, has a porous core layer and at least one cover layer on each side, wherein the porous core layer is constructed such that it has acoustic transparency or an acoustically absorbent effect. Here, the porous core layer is made either from a thermoplastic matrix with embedded reinforcement fibers, especially glass fibers, whose melting point temperature is higher than the melting point temperature of the plastic matrix, or from a foam, which is either open-cell or closed-cell and perforated. The acoustically absorbent porous core layer is occupied on one or both sides with one or more acoustically transparent or absorbent covering layers.

Acoustic cover part for a vehicle

A fabric covering support such as that for interior trim of motor vehicles, includes a support which is adapted in shape to the area to be covered with trim and is provided with a foam backing, and has a fabric covering arranged on the visible side of the foam. The support is a nonwoven material made with a thermoplastic binder, and both the support and the fabric with the foam backing are bonded by flame lamination.
