The bumper unit comprises a bumper reinforcing member (22) secured to a vehicle body, an impact absorbing member (23) and a bumper cover (24) which is arranged to cover the impact absorbing member (23) and is fastened to the bumper reinforcing member (22). The bumper cover (24) is fastened to the bumper reinforcing member (22) in such a manner that the bumper cover (24) and the impact absorbing member (23) can move slightly toward the bumper reinforcing member (22) in a collision of the vehicle so that the deformation of the bumper unit in the vertical direction is prevented. Preferably holes (29) for a bolt (28) formed in a flange section of the bumper cover (24) is formed into an elongated shape extending longitudin ally of the vehicle so as to allow the bumper cover (24) to move toward the bumper reinforcing member (22) through the length of the elongated holes (29) in a collision.
