Tint the third brake light, and get a tailgate handle filler.

If you're on a low budget, debadging it would change the look of it a lot, and its cheap!

Oh, I was going to say if your just looking for small stuff on the cheap for right now, debadging is first and foremost... but if there's holes then that would involve bodywork which isn't cheap.

Maybe for starters see if you can go to a local paint store and get your trucks color blended into a spray can (there's a place around where I live that does it, so I know it's possible) and take the badges off, spray 'em to match the truck and reinstall. If you don't end up liking it it'll just motivate you to have the emblems smoothed off anyway.

Next up is the rollpan. Enough said. Just do it.

Other than that I think the truck looks pretty clean honestly. That is of course considering the drop kit is the VERY first thing on your list to do. Once you got those 3 things taken care of, feel free to have at it with everything else mentioned!
