ABSTRACT:
A movable molding is provided for a vehicle on the vehicle body adjacent to a wrap-around end portion of the bumper. The molding and end portion of the bumper have mating abutment walls through which these elements are fastened together. When the bumper moves towards the vehicle upon impact, the molding is thereby caused to move therewith. Slide means are provided between the molding and vehicle body for sliding of the molding along the body. A cam surface is provided in the sliding structure which causes the end of the molding remote from the bumper end porton to move away from the vehicle body and thereby avoid damaging contact with any outwardly projecting vehicle body structure which lies in the path of the molding.
