Automotive fascia is a decorative plastic panel that is mounted on top of the bumper at the front and rear of the vehicle. Bumper is a structure attached to or integrated with the front and rear ends of a motor vehicle, to absorb impact in a minor collision, ideally minimizing repair costs. Therefore, to cover the bumper, original equipment manufacturers (OEM) often design the fascia to provide a unified look to the vehicle. Moreover, it comprises space for grilles, headlamps, bumpers, and vehicle emblem. Furthermore, to reduce the weight of the vehicle OEM prefer using lightweight materials for designing the fascia. In addition, fascia is made from lightweight plastic since, it is estimated that 10% reduction in vehicle weight is anticipated to reduce fuel consumption by nearly 7%. Also, fascia play a very important role in the vehicle aerodynamics design since, it is the front part of the vehicle thus, increasing the overall efficiency of the vehicle.
