Custom Dash Bezel Gauge Plates
I normally don't care for this sort of thing, but I think I like these:

It looks like you can get these in brushed aluminum, brushed stainless, or polished stainless.

I have seen these before. The polished stainless are to look like chrome. I have only ever seen the brushed aluminum one installed in somebody's truck on here. I can envision it installed w/ the Black bezels or possibly the black/silver combo. There is a company that also sells white face adhesive overlays for our gauges including the HVAC control plate.

I never personally cared for the white faced gauges on a truck (looks too "aftermarket" to me), but the bezel plate looks like it could have come from Ford like that, especially the brushed aluminum one. It matches the brushed aluminum tailgate finish panel and aluminum wheel trim rings that are found on the Lariat models.
I wish that seller made a matching brushed aluminum plate to go over the passenger's side of the dashboard, that would go around the recessed area there and around the dash vents.

Agrees, I meant that interior-wise there are only a few items out there to change such things . If I have brushed aluminum in any of my vehicles I prefer the accents used throughout the interior. I am toying w/ the idea of redoing the wood grain on some of the spare bezels I have laying around.
Interestingly enough, a lot of of the younger generation likes the clear lenses on lights. LMC now has the clear cab lights and they always had the front turn signals in clear. Ironically, I believe that is how the 80-81 F-Series came from the factory (Clear front turns). LMC even now makes the rear Altezza lights for te 80-86, but I was never into those style of brake lights
