ABSTRACT:
A fascia set plate for mounting thereon the upper end portion of a soft fascia and right and left wind-guide side panels for guiding air introduced from the front of a vehicle body to a radiator are provided in front of a radiator shroud panel, and the lower end portions of the wind-guide side panels are connected to right and left side frames, respectively, thereby supporting the fascia set plate by the right and left wind-guide side panels. That is, a channel-like structure which is superior in strength is defined by the pair of wind-guide side panels and the fascia set plate as viewed from the front of the vehicle body, and forces exerted on the soft fascia are borne by the side frames by way of the channel-like structure.
