Example components, methods of manufacturing, and/or the like are provided for an automotive trim component (). In some embodiments, an automotive trim component () may include a lightguide assembly () including a set of illumination elements configured to generate light and a lightguide for directing the generated light; a front cover () including a combination of a transparent or translucent resin and an opaque resin; and a back cover () configured to act as a carrier for the lightguide assembly (), the back cover () including an electrical harness () and a rib () disposed around at least a portion of the lightguide assembly (), wherein the rib () is configured to contain and support the electrical harness ().

Automotive trim component

A selectively chrome plated object having a substantially flush interface comprises a first portion formed by injection molding a plateable resin and defining a first top surface, a second portion formed by injection molding a non-plateable resin and defining a second top surface, the second portion sitting proud of the first portion such that the second top surface of the second portion is offset from the first top surface of the first portion, and a third portion formed by a chrome plating process where a chrome plating is applied to the first top surface of the first portion such that a third top surface of the third portion is substantially flush with the second top surface of the second portion.

Selective chrome plating with flush interface

A trim for an object and its method of manufacture involve providing a transparent or translucent substrate defining a top surface, applying an opaque layer above the top surface of the substrate, the opaque layer defining one or more apertures through which light can pass, and applying one or more translucent metallic-looking layers above a top surface of the opaque layer. In some implementations, the trim is a selectively illuminable trim whereby a light source is arranged beneath a bottom surface of the substrate, the light source being configured to output light through the substrate, the one or more apertures defined by the opaque layer, and the one or more metallic-looking layers.
