Finally! Someone used the right word to describe these kinds of changes - retrofit. The rest of Nigerian so-called auto enthusiasts will call this "upgrade" which I find slightly irritating. Poverty is also making us take retrofits too damn far. You'd see a 2012 Lexus retrofitted to look like 2022 one in the belief that someone will look at such a horrible retrofit and mistake it for a recent model
