Subject: <All> Significance of the letters "BBS"

Years ago a young girl riding in the back seat of my ''79 320is asked the significance of the letters in the "BBS" decal I had affixed to the rear side window. At the time I had no idea. I recently sent an e-mail to there German web site. No response. Today, I connected to the English version of their web site, via Ben Liaw's links. Bingo.

Heinrich Baumgartner and Klaus Brand established a small manufacturing plant for plastic body parts in Schiltach. The initials of both founders and the city are the basis of the name "BBS".
