Ideas for light aesthetic upgrades?

[sport trac jr.]

Not looking to go all out and over-done, just some light tasteful things. I think my dad who owned this before got some chrome trimming for the fenders, or maybe thats stock Idk. Got the brush guard.

Thinking maybe I'll put the bug shield back on (the original one broke so would have to buy a new one)

Planning to keep stock wheels and prolly stock tire size cos i don't want to mess with speedo gears and possible worse gas mileage. Also the tires i have on it are only a few months old so don't want to replace them anytime soon.

I know the headlights look a bit old so Im gonna clean them, i was gonna get aftermarket ones but dont want to roll the dice with water leaking in like i did with my last pair of headlights.

Any other ideas for light tasteful upgrades? Any places I can add chrome trimming?

I've been looking for the old fashioned V8 insignias in chrome with the 8 in the cradle of the V. The originals on the 97 XLT are plastic rectangles held on with adhesive. The car is portofino blue (remember the periwinkle crayon?). It's blue with a hint of purple. So I have pinstripes in blue, purple and grey. Interior trim (dashboard, console and more) is wood. Just a few (hopefully) tasteful upgrades.

I wouldn’t lift it unless you plan on using it off-road and need more clearance. I’ve had lift keys and lift shackles on my 2000 for a year now and will be going back to almost stock height soon.

Not worth the lost ride quality in the city since it’ll be stiffer, not that it had great ride quality to begin with lol. The lift definitely looks better but it also wore out my suspension faster, especially my upper control arms

Snake Plissken just posted that Cad is photoshopped or chris cuomo's make believe cad. and "The Hayes"......about drove off the road and over the possible trim package he was eyeballing
on 42 second and 6th ave...

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
This ain't no fooling around
This ain't no Mudd Club, or C. B. G. B.,
I ain't got time for that .....
My Monroe-Matic Plus is losing pressure and
those chandeliers "is" looking fine....while
Snake ........ Hayes, "is" are looking around...
My party is winding down....Hayes just stole my trim....
and Snake just drove the Cad..........to Chandelier Valley and 6th and I need a 4.0 fix..
