There is an other example of a Niederbieber type helmet worked over/changed in Late antiquity. I have to check back home where it is published, though.
Both pieces are very interesting in terms of how long such equipment was in use. Context might be intereting, though. What kind of fibula was found there, if at all?
The Niederbieber helmets seem to have been worn by infantry mostly, some finds ar in clear equestrian context, though. In regard of the large neck-guard a dangerous endeavour, though.
