Personally I think these conversions look pretty crap.

In thinking of upgrading to a Cerb next year, it kinda limits the market if I only look for examples with the original headlamps.

So... can these 'upgraded' lights be undone, and put back to original spec easily enough?

Cheers,

It depends on what you would define as easy. It can certainly be done as it'll be "just" cutting the fibreglass, remoulding, then at best a blended localised spray but i would think most bodyshops would want to do the whole front end. So it's quite a large amount of labour.

I haven't head of anyone actually doing it so not sure if you'll be able to obtain an accurate quote.
It might actually work out cheaper to swap entire front ends with someone who is looking to upgrade!

It also means you wont be able to get a car any younger than 2000-01 as they all had the Tuscan style lights as standard from then on.
