IMO, Fix the rear bumper, get rid of the chrome door pillars and chrome fender moulding. After that any nice looking set of wheels and some 33" AT tires would make a big difference! Lots of pics around here to get ideas from.

I would get rid of all the stick on chrome imo it looks cheap, and get some nice flat black wheels. I would go with an all black theme personally, maybe some pro comp 7005's would look really nice. But find a nice wheel and stick on some 33" tires.

One more thing I missed the first time, I don't think its actually an FX4, please correct me if I am wrong. Chrome bumpers/wheels plus the pic of your cluster makes me think its a 4x4 XLT.

Some may remember I put up a post once with my views on decals, but that's just my own opinion. Opinions are like obamas everyone has one.

After the leveling kit, I'd add a set of 18x9 inch wheels (with 5 to 6 inches of backspacing) and some 305/60-18 (33x12.50) or 325/60-18 (33x13.00) tires. Any offroad style black, chrome or polished wheel will look good. I agree, I'd remove the stick on chrome and the fender trim.
