An automobile airbag door is formed by a door base member, a door cover member, and a tear line. The door base member and the door cover member form a part of a base member and a part of a cover member of an instrument panel, respectively. When pressed by an airbag being deployed and inflated, the door base member is torn from the tear line. The first zone is defined as the bonded part between the outer surface of the door base member and the door cover member which extends along the tear line and includes a part on which the tear line is projected. The second zones are on both sides of the first zone and extend along the tear line. The automobile airbag door has a mechanism that makes the bond strength in the first zone weaker than the bond strength in each second zone.

1. An automobile airbag door that forms a part of an automobile instrument panel, which is formed by bonding a cover member onto an outer surface of a base member, the airbag door comprising: a door base member that forms a part of the base member;a door cover member that forms a part of the cover member;a tear line formed only in the door base member, wherein, when the door base member is pressed by an airbag being deployed and inflated, the tear line functions as a starting point of tearing action of the door base member; anda bond strength difference generating mechanism, wherein, in a bonded part between the outer surface of the door base member and the door cover member, a band-like zone, which extends along the tear line and includes a part on which the tear line is projected, is defined as a first zone, and a band-like zone, which is on either side of the first zone and extends along the tear line, is defined as a second zone, and wherein the bond strength between the door base member and the door cover member in the first zone is weaker than that in the second zone. 2. The automobile airbag door according to claim 1, wherein the door cover member is bonded to the door base member via an adhesive layer, andthe bond strength difference generating mechanism is formed by a primer layer that is formed between the adhesive layer and the door base member in the second zone. 3. The automobile airbag door according to claim 1, wherein the bond strength difference generating mechanism is formed by a rough surface formed in the second zone in the outer surface of the door base member, the rough surface being rougher than the first zone. 4. The automobile airbag door according to claim 3, wherein the rough surface is formed by exposing the second zone in the outer surface of the door base member to flame. 5. The automobile airbag door according to claim 3, wherein the rough surface is formed by subjecting the second zone in the outer surface of the door base member to grain finish. 6. The automobile airbag door according to claim 1, wherein the bond strength difference generating mechanism is a heated surface that is formed by heating the second zone in the outer surface of the door base member before the door cover member is bonded to the door base member, andbefore the door cover member is bonded to the door base member, the temperature of the second zone is higher than the temperature of the first zone. 7. The automobile airbag door according to claim 1, wherein the bond strength difference generating mechanism is provided only in the second zone. 8. The automobile airbag door according to claim 1, wherein in the second zone, the door cover member is bonded to the door base member, andthe bond strength difference generating mechanism makes the bond strength between the door base member and the door cover member in the first zone weaker than that in the second zone by not bonding the door cover member to the door base member in the first zone.
