Abstract

A method for producing two fascias using two ventilation structures which are common at least in part, comprising the steps of producing a first and a second ventilation structure, each comprising one or more pliable duct portions identical between one ventilation structure and the other; producing a first cover for a fascia, having one or more first air vents, and a second fascia cover, different from the first, and having one or more second air vents; positioning the pliable duct portions of the first ventilation structure by way of first positioning lug and assembling said pliable duct portions of the first ventilation structure and the first air vents; positioning the pliable duct portions of the second ventilation structure by way of second positioning lug distinct from the first, and assembling said pliable duct portions of the second ventilation structure and the second air vents.
