Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of molding a bumper back beam for a vehicle and the bumper back beam manufactured using the method. The method of molding the bumper back beam includes: preparing a lattice mat and long fiber pellets as raw materials, introducing the lattice mat into a die, supplying the long fiber pellets into the die and then injection-molding a bumper back beam from the lattice mat and long fiber pellets at low pressures and separating the injection-molded bumper back beam from the die.
