ABSTRACT:
A clip for attaching an ornamental member to a wall member such as a vehicle body panel. The clip has a head continuously connected with a portion locking the ornamental member. The head is pressed against one surface of the wall member. The clip also has a leg extending from the head and is inserted into a through hole in the wall member. Pawls are formed at a maximum diameter portion of the leg and pressed against the other surface of the wall member to fixedly hold the leg onto the wall member. Pliable thin-walled resin is coated through secondary forming around the respective outer peripheries of the pawls and the leg for preventing damage of an inner periphery of the through hole when the leg is inserted into the through hole.
