The clip body includes a clamping portion configured to be coupled to the rib via an engagement slot formed in the rib, and an engagement portion elastically engageable with the attaching hole. The engagement portion has a biasing body that is configured to elastically contact an outer surface of the rib when the engagement portion is deformed inwardly caused by an extraction load applied to the clip body. The biasing body is positioned so as to contact the outer surface of the rib in a position closer to a distal end of the rib than the engagement slot.
