The sensor attachment structure includes a support section provided on the outside face of the left bumper beam extension, and an airbag sensor attached to the support section. The support section deforms and retreats toward the vehicle body rear as a result of compression of the left bumper beam extension during compression of the left bumper beam extension due to an impact load input from the vehicle body front.
