Abstract: A vehicle decorative component includes a decorative main body and a heating wire. The vehicle decorative component includes a design surface on the front surface in the transmission direction of electromagnetic waves. The area from the design surface to a position behind and separated from the design surface in the transmission direction is constituted by a transparent member having a transparency to electromagnetic waves. The heating wire is disposed on the rear surface of the transparent member in the transmission direction. The heating wire includes a metal lead, which generates heat when energized, and a coating portion made of plastic. The coating portion coats the lead and constitutes the outer circumferential portion of the heating wire. At least the outer circumferential portion of the coating portion is constituted by a transparent coating portion, which is made of a transparent plastic.
