Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a bumper look more attractive to enhance the external appearance quality thereof, by forming a longitudinal rib in one terminal end section of a bumper facia, and by prolonging the concealing section of a side shield so that the fitting section between the above-mentioned rib and a reinforcement is concealded. CONSTITUTION:A longitudinal rib 38 is planted on the terminal end part 36 of the upper surface section 32 of a bumper facia 30, and is fitted thereon with the engaging groove section 45 of a reinforcement 40. Further, the concealing section 13 of an attaching piece 12 of a side shield 11 is extended further from a position where it is superposed over the above-mentioned engaging groove section 45, so that the front end section 14 thereof covers the reinforcing piece section 38b of the above-mentioned longitudinal rib 38. Accordingly, upon bump the upper surface section 32 of the bumper facia 30 is bent along a fold line at the front end of the reinforcing piece section 38b of the longitudinal rib 30, as indicated by a one-dot chain line, and therefore, it does not interface with the front end section 14 of the above-mentioned concealing piece 13. Further, the concealing piece 13 may be prolonged so that the longitudinal rib 38 and the engaging groove section 45 may be sufficiently concealed so the external appearance may be made more satisfactory.
