    repair, replace, or ''improve''

    hey guys today I noticed that my passenger side high beams has a hole in it the size of a bb and upon further inspection I noticed that there is some pitting on the inside. for now I but some electrical tape on it so it looks like im indefinitely heading to and from track days lol. these are the factory hella U.S ellipsoid's and was wondering if I could bake them and put a new lens on if I should buy another pair of used U.S hellas or get a set of depo smileys? thanks in advance.
