hi guys, 
was wondering how trim clips are made? 
are they part of a two piece mold, or are they made using a separate type of mold (e,g vacuum form or silicone mold) and then stuck onto the carbon fiber part?

I make silicone moulds with CS25 and then cast them with Xencast P6 Toughened Polyurethane Casting Resin. When they are cured i just epoxy them with a bit of carbon fiber wave on to the part
