Dieter’s Accessories specializes in stainless steel parts, including grilles, visors, cab skirts, fender guards, and lighting products. Dieter’s also has an aftermarket brand under the Panelite nameplate, which was acquired by Dieters in 2010.

“We are thrilled with our new relationship,” Dieter’s president Peter Hohendorn said. “I and the management team saw HBB as the best fit to take Dieter’s to the next level, while sharing our core beliefs and family values.”

Hohendorn will remain invested in the company, and following a transition period will remain a consultant. Dieter’s Accessories joins Minimizer, Premier Manufacturing, and Viking Mud Flaps as part of High Bar Brands’ portfolio.
