Interior soft trim components for a vehicle and methods for manufacturing the same are presented. Embodiments of the disclosed soft interior trim components may be manufactured using a spray application process. In some embodiments, the disclosed soft interior trim components may comprise a urethane skin layer and a urethane foam backer layer formed using a spray application process. The skin layer and foam backer layer may be bonded to a substrate material providing structure for the interior trim components. In certain embodiments, the skin layer and foam backer layer may be bonded to the substrate material prior to the foam backer layer curing, thereby allowing for bonding of the skin layer and foam backer layer to the substrate material without the use and/or with reduced use of adhesives.
