An attachment hole 121 a is formed in the attachment flange portion 121, and is configured to be overlapped and fixed to the hole portion 102 e formed in the front fender panel 102.
[0083]
Next, the operation of the second embodiment will be described.
[0084]
In the second embodiment, the vehicle width direction positioning members 116, 116 extend along the vehicle width direction and have a substantially U-shaped cross-section that opens the rear side of the vehicle. When inserted between the panels 102, 102, the vehicle width direction positioning members 116, 116 are elastically brought into contact with the inner side surfaces 102d, 102d of the front fender panel to perform positioning in the vehicle width direction.
[0085]
Further, the upper mounting portion 115 is positioned in the vehicle front-rear direction with respect to the upper surface of the front fender reinforcement 103 and is mounted using the bolt members 21 and 21 and the nut members 22 and 22.
[0086]
Since the end portion 117 of the vehicle width direction positioning member 116 is locked to the shelf portion 102c from above and positioning in the vertical direction is completed, the front end module main body 111 can be easily mounted, as in the conventional case. There is no need to use a jig, and the mounting workability can be improved.
[0087]
As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the front end module main body 111 is formed by the notch locking portion 118 in which a part below the end portion 117 of the vehicle width direction positioning member 116 is notched. Since the lower surface portion 116a of the vehicle width direction positioning member 116 is not related to the support of the front end module main body 111 because the rack portion 102c is locked, the rear edge portion 116b of the lower surface portion 116 faces downward. The muddy water flow path surface 119 which is given an inclination angle and descends obliquely can be formed.
[0088]
As described above, since the rear edge portion of the lower surface portion 116a of the front-end module main body 111 is inclined downward, the muddy water is quickly dropped downward. In addition, even when the side surface of the shelf 102c is formed so as to be directed toward the inside of the vehicle as it goes toward the front of the vehicle, it is possible to secure a molding die cutting angle of the notch locking portion 118 that contacts the side surface.

[0089]
The muddy water that has flowed along the shelf 102c is blocked by the end portion 117 of the vehicle width direction positioning member 116 and flows down to the upper surface of the lower surface portion 116a, and from the muddy water channel surface 119 of the lower surface portion 116a. It flows down toward the rear of the vehicle and is drained.
[0090]
Further, the upper surface portion 116c of the vehicle width direction positioning member 116 has the upper edge portion rear end 120a of the bumper fascia member 120 locked to the front edge portion 116d from above, and the vehicle width direction positioning member 116 has The upper surface 116c is in contact with the lower surface 6d of the headlamp member 6 with the rear edge upper edge 116e attached to the front surface of the front end module body 111.
[0091]
For this reason, the clearance accuracy between the bumper fascia member 120 and the headlamp member 6 can be improved.
[0092]
Further, since the skew guide rib portions 116f and 116f guide the vehicle in the vehicle width direction when the front end module main body 111 is inserted between the front fender panels 102 and 102, the front end module main body 111 is mounted. Workability can be further improved.
[0093]
Other configurations and functions and effects are substantially the same as those of the first embodiment, and thus description thereof is omitted.
