A window molding for automobiles has an elongate leg fitted into a gap between a perimeter of a front window glass and a window frame. The molding holds the perimeter of the front window glass between an inner support and an outer support. A head is disposed at one end of the leg, the head having a lateral portion thereof extending over the outer support. A guide connects the lateral portion of the head and the outer support, the guide defining a distance between the lateral portion of the head and the outer support and being deformed according to a respective position along the perimeter of the front window glass. A guide groove is defined at least in part by the guide and opened toward the front window glass at least at side edges of the front window glass. A veil lip is disposed on the lateral portion of the head and forms an obtuse angle therewith at least at the side edges of the front window glass so that the veil lip extends toward the front window glass and defines another part of the guide groove. The guide is deformed at the upper edge of the front window glass to shorten the distance between the lateral portion of the head and the outer support so that the veil lip has a portion thereof bearing on the front window glass along the upper edge of the front window glass.
