The invention relates to a cladding part of a body shell of a vehicle. The cladding part having a base body, which has a visible side facing towards the outer side and an inner side and which comprises a light window in the form of a light-transmitting transparent or translucent region at least in a sub-region, and an opaque region with a colouring coating at least in a sub-region. The cladding part also having an illumination function, which is arranged behind the visible side of the base body for shining through or illuminating the light window. The cladding part also having a device which has a visible side that has a coloring coating, the device being connected adjustably to the base body in such a way that in a first position the device closes the light window and fully covers the illumination function as seen from the outer side and the visible side is orientated toward the outer side, and in a second position it uncovers the light window and the illumination function as seen from the outer side, in such a way that the illumination function is visible through the light window as seen from the outer side.
