1958 Mercedes-Benz 190SL Restoration

I am unsure at what point the head lights were modified. When I stripped the eight or so layers of paint off the car it looked to have been done between the first and second repaints. It is a headlight setup from a Porsche Type 356 and was installed very well, so I chose to leave it as is and see if I could find the story behind it. Still searching.
