Abstract
A radiator grille fixing structure comprises a plurality of fasteners which are each composed of a base plate and engaging means formed one each on the opposite sides of the base plate, with at least one of the two engaging means containing a shank portion of increased wall thickness and a flexible arm extended from the leading end of the shank portion and provided with an engaging step portion. In this structure, at least one of the plurality of fasteners is disposed in a direction opposite the direction in which the remaining fasteners are disposed. This fixing structure, when used as the medium for the union between a radiator grille and an automobile body, withstands all external forces exerted upon the radiator grille during the travel of the automobile.
