Had the 3-light blended front conversion done on my Cerbera a couple of months back by Team Proactve (RIP ) Personally, I think it was worth it - even worth the extra £500 over the unblended pods (which do look a bit cheap, along with the "Type-R" conversion). Makes the car look much newer, much nicer, and much less like a 993 as far as I'm concerned. It matches the new cars, so I imagine it'll help it sell if not adding much to the value. Worst thing about the conversion - could've had Nitrons all round instead, but I'm still more than happy with the choice.

Will probably have a rear conversion at some point, but I can't decide between the standard, afterburner, or a couple of custom blended ones I've seen. Would probably go for the blended option if I could find out who does it and saw examples in the flesh.

Personally I think they complement the Cerbera but don't look comfortable on a Chimaera, not sure about value, I would say at the moment most people would prefer standard lights but in years to come they might be veiwed as a period accessory?

Had my Griff done with the Speed Six conversion and think it looks awesome! I realise that some traditionalists will prefer the original look, but I've had sufficient positive responses that I don't think it will be a problem when I come to sell it.
Worse part was having to wait five weeks for the TVR Bodyshop to complete the work.
