Abstract
An end cap is attached to a molding main body and is attached to a vehicle body by pressing a clip via the molding main body to the vehicle body. The end cap includes a cap portion which covers an end portion of the molding main body when the end cap is attached to the molding main body, an insertion portion whose proximal end portion is continuous with the cap portion and which is inserted into the molding main body, and a rib which is provided on the insertion portion such that the rib projects from an opening of the molding main body and which receives a reaction force from the vehicle body when a forward end portion of the rib butts against the vehicle body due to a pressing force which is applied to the clip via the molding main body so as to lock the clip.
