ABSTRACT:
At a corner of a window molding (M) mounted between a peripheral edge (1) of a window pane (G) and a vehicle body panel (P), a seal lip (4) of the window molding (M) is prevented from being floated from an outer surface (3) of the vehicle body panel (P). A sectional configuration of the window molding (M) includes a window pane-fitted groove (2.sub.1) which is provided at one end and into which the peripheral edge (1) of the window pane (G) is fitted, and a seal lip (4) provided at the other end to abut against the outer surface (3) of the vehicle body panel (P). The sectional configuration further includes a cut-off portion (2.sub.2) which is triangular is cross-section and which is provided in a back surface of the window molding (M) corresponding to the corner. The cut-off portion (2.sub.2) ensures that main axes X and Y of a section of the window molding (M) can be allowed to substantially correspond to reference lines X.sub.0 and Y.sub.0 extending along the surface and end face of the window pane (G), and the window molding (M) can be smoothly curved in a plane parallel to the window pane (G), thereby preventing floating of the seal lip (4) from the outer surface (3) of the vehicle body panel (P).
