An instrument panel reinforcement includes a main body and a flattened portion. The main body has a tubular shape extending from a first end to a second end along a vehicle-width direction. The flattened portion is formed in the main body at a position apart from the first end and the second end and allows a peripheral component to be arranged thereon. The flattened portion is a dent in the main body, having a cross-section perpendicular to the vehicle-width direction in a dented shape such that an inner space within the main body is flattened in a first direction, the first direction being a direction perpendicular to the vehicle-width direction. The flattened portion includes a mounting portion. The mounting portion is where inner-circumferential surfaces of the main body, which face each other, are substantially in contact with each other, and on which the peripheral component is mounted.
