Changes array from id to name

I have selects on the front-end:

<select name="make">
   <option value="1">Ducati</option>
   <option value="2">Bmw</option>
</select>

Spatie activity log detects changes and saves them correctly as value 1 changed to value 2, how do I use tapActivity to manipulate those values to insert the names instead?

I tried something similar to the below:

 public function tapActivity(Activity $activity)
    {
        $attributes = $activity->properties->get('attributes', []);
        $old = $activity->properties->get('old', []);

        $make = MotorcycleMake::find($attributes['motorcycle_make_id']);
        $model = MotorcycleModel::find($attributes['motorcycle_model_id']);

        $oldMake = MotorcycleMake::find($old['motorcycle_make_id']);
        $oldModel = MotorcycleModel::find($old['motorcycle_model_id']);

        $activity->properties = $activity->properties->put('attributes', [
            'motorcycle_make_id' => $make->name,
            'motorcycle_model_id' => $model->model,
        ]);

        $activity->properties = $activity->properties->put('old', [
            'motorcycle_make_id' => $oldMake->name,
            'motorcycle_model_id' => $oldModel->model,
        ]);



        dd($activity);
    }

from the dd($activity) I can see that the changes are made

 #attributes: array:8 [▼
    "log_name" => "Motorcycle"
    "properties" => "{"attributes":{"motorcycle_make_id":"Bmw","motorcycle_model_id":"S 1000 R"},"old":{"motorcycle_make_id":"Ducati","motorcycle_model_id":"Hypermotard"}}"
    "causer_id" => 1
    "causer_type" => "App\Models\User"
    "batch_uuid" => null
    "event" => "updated"
    "subject_id" => 1
    "subject_type" => "App\Models\Motorcycle"
  ]

It unfortunately does not write that info to the log :

{"attributes":{"motorcycle_make_id":null,"motorcycle_model_id":null},"old":{"motorcycle_make_id":null,"motorcycle_model_id":null}}

Thanking you in advance

I see there is a section on manipulating the changes array via pipes.

not sure where the" RemoveKeyFromChangesPipe.php" file needs to be placed from the example
