Fascia is a term used in two areas in the automotive world.

Fascia often refers to the decorative panels of a car's dashboard,[1] or the dashboard assembly.[2][3]

Regulations affecting bumper design in the late 1970s saw the increasing use of soft plastic materials on the front and rear of vehicles. Fascia was adopted then as the term to describe these soft areas,[4] but is now increasingly used as a general term for a car's set of front-end components: grille, headlamps, front bumper, and other details.[5]

The name came from the Italian word fascia (pronounced [ˈfaʃʃa]), that means stripe.
