ABSTRACT:
A vehicular bumper mounting structure including a support for mounting a hollow, transversely extending bumper beam of high tension steel to a side member of the vehicle body. The support includes a support body and an arm member adapted to be mounted to an upper side or a lower side of the support in an overlapping relation thereto. At least one of the support body and the arm member has at an end thereof an extension extending beyond a rear side portion of the bumper beam. Consequently, if a large collision energy is exerted to the bumper beam, which is hollow and hence light in weight, the collision energy is transmitted to at least one of the support body and arm member before the entire bumper beam having a box cross section is largely deformed, whereby the collision energy transmitted to the support can be transmitted to the vehicle body quickly.
