A method produces plastic/metal hybrid components, in particular for the automotive field. A plastic compound is injected into a tool mold, and the tool mold has a core onto which a metal is injected. The plastic compound is then injected into the tool mold such that the metal is back-molded with the plastic compound and is fixed to the plastic in order to produce a blank. The tool mold is used to produce at least one depression in the surface of the blank, the depression being at least partly filled with a metal as part of a first additional processing.
