Molded in all the way through. They were all made using the injection molding process. A very expensive steel tool in the shape of each part was built, the pelletized plastic was heated and melted under tons of pressure, shot into the water cooled mold, and returned to a solid when cooled down. The plastic pellets are the same color as the part that comes from the mold.

damn. the ****er that sold me my car after he stripped it also lied about the not "chalky" black interior door panels that he painted black from green. I'm about ready to bypass the cops and court and settle this frontier style.

 Are the door panels in bad shape?
