Ska det tolkas som "look card" och namnbyteskort? Eller kort som man byter med varann, som visitkort?Är det en eller två typer av kort som avses?

utseende- och namn(för)ändringskort
Explanation:
A name change card documents an alternative name that a person has chosen to use, due to marriage or some other reason.
I would guess that the "look" does the same for a drastic change in looks due to accident or cosmetic surgery.

Hmm, det skulle kunna gälla produkt istället för person, men inte påverkar det översättningen inte.

Exemple:
"Grehound Food" (brown cubes) in brown bag changes to "Champion Racing Food" (red cubes) in blue bag, with identical nutritional content.
