Hmmmm, good question! You're right, I don't think it's in any of the
sourcebooks.

Personally, I'd rule that new cyberware would drop his Magic Rating even
further. The damage to his aura from the surgery, that caused the first
Magic reduction, is permanent and entirely different from any damage to his
aura from cyberware-based Essence loss. The effects should be cumulative,
I think; of course, this would necessarily be a GM's judgment call.


Blessings,
