Default upgrades???

well, now that i have a job, i would like to do a few upgrades on my truck. i was thinking maybe a rollbar with KC lights and a billet grill. i would also like to gain more horsepower and/or fuel economy. i still need to fix the 4x4 but i would just like a couple ideas of what i can do to this truck to make it look and perform better. its a 97 4x4 flareside.

I have never seen a rollbar that will fit a flare side truck before, but that might just be something that I dont know about.

I would look for grills on ebay.
