    Alright, now we get to have the chat that has been bothering me for ages!

    I thought the Work Anhelo kit is this more bulbous/cloud shaped offering, which is distinctly different from the bumper James has. Hammerhead, is your bumper stamped Anhelo or did you mean it was stamped Work? This will probably just make me more confused, but could help.



    Fightex to me was always Toda's line of coilovers and Work was always wheels...until I came to roadsters.


    (keen people will also notice the Work wheels)

    Now HyperRev is telling me Work sells this bodykit called Anhelo and sells another called Fightex. Anhelo to me appears to be either separate company from Toda and Work or a collaboration of companies under one banner. I can't seem to find another Anhelo body kit, aside from reference to a Toyota Cardina though I haven't investigated whether that was another name for the Cardina in another country or something similar. Work Wheels/Work Automotive/Fightex/Toda/Anhelo all have individual stickers on both the green car and the white car. As in, the green car that's labeled "Fightex" has Anhelo stickers and the white car labeled "Anhelo" has Fightex stickers too. Also, they're shown on pages that face each other. Now, before you reply please label your facts, theories and conspiracies as such

    Thanks for the additional info. I will need to check what the bumper on my car says. I would imagine this is how the importer verified the brand as it wasn't listed on the auction papers from Japan.

    Garret - I absolutely thought the same too, because I have issues of Road&ster with that same ad and some other pics of owner's cars. The only reason I say mine is such, is because 'Work Anjelo' is present on the backside of my bumper and it is raised and underneath the last layer of fiberglass mat. It's really hard to see, but it's there.
