Profiled section, especially for a motor vehicle, and method for the production thereof

A method for manufacturing a profile section having a mounting portion for mounting the profile section to a motor vehicle and a decorating portion comprising the steps of:

• a) extruding a mixture of a first elastomer and flock fibers for forming the decorating portion with elevations and depressions in a visible surface of the decorating portion, wherein the extruded first elastomer forms an elastomeric matrix within which the flock fibers are embedded in a way that the flock fibers have a fiber length composed of a first length that is embedded within the elastomeric matrix and a second length that protrudes from the elastomeric matrix for creating textile-like optics and haptic, wherein the first length is longer than the second length;
• b) forming the mounting portion;
• and
• c) arranging the decorating portion on the mounting portion.
