Front pillar outer

A front pillar outer that includes a glass-surface-side flange part, a door-side flange part, and a main body part that connects the glass-surface-side flange part and the door-side flange part, the front pillar outer comprising:

• a first member extending from a fore end towards a rear end of the front pillar outer, the first member including a first glass-surface-side flange part constituting one part of the glass- surface-side flange part, a first door-side flange part constituting one part of the door-side flange part, and a first main body part that connects the first glass-surface-side flange part and the first door-side flange part;
• a second member extending from the rear end towards the fore end of the front pillar outer and having a thinner sheet thickness than the first member, the second member including a second glass-surface-side flange part constituting one part of the glass-surface-side flange part, a second door-side flange part constituting one part of the door-side flange part, and a second main body part that connects the second glass-surface-side flange part and the second door-side flange part,
• wherein:
• the first door-side flange part protrudes further towards the rear end of the front pillar outer than the first glass-surface-side flange part and the first main body part, and overlaps with the second door-side flange part,
• the second glass-surface-side flange part overlaps with a rearward region of the first glass-surface-side flange part,
• the second main body part overlaps with a rearward region of the first main body part, and
• the first member is joined to the second member in a region in which the first door-side flange part overlaps with the second door-side flange part, a region in which the second glass-surface-side flange part overlaps with the first glass-surface-side flange part, and a region in which the second main body part overlaps with the first main body part.
