That looks like a nice clean truck. As far as what you want to do, I'd say look into a bed cover of some sorts. That along with husky floor mats was by far the best, not wasted money, I ever spent on the truck. Depending on the mileage, you may want to think about suspension upgrades. At least upgrading the suspension will be both "performance" and replacing a service life item. Two birds, one stone is my though process when buying stuff for the truck. Keep an eye on CL for deals and the for sale threads here in the forum. You can get some sweet deals from fellow 150 owners.

You are on the right track. All that chrome made it look like a JC whitney catalog puked on it!
Once those handle buckets and pillars are gone, your truck is going to look pretty similar to mine. I can post some pics, if you want. Just didn't want to hijack your thread.

Oh the ol' JC Whitney catalog!
I am personally not a fan of the Raptor grille. It's like someone who uses a windshield banner stating the obvious. Like "CAMARO" or "HONDA", but it's your truck and your money don't let anybody tell you what to do with it.
I do think you are headed in the right direction. One of the better appearance upgrades that I have done so far is gloss black pillar covers. I also like the mirror caps color matched. You can paint over the textured caps and they will be smooth like mine. I also prefer roll up bed covers over hard covers. And bed lights, floor lighting, and running board/puddle lighting, dang I can go on and on. Here are a few pics of what I'm talking about on my truck.

Something else I really like is my under hood lighting. It's not an appearance things it's more function. I did get these from f150leds.com which I think is over priced. But, it does make for a clean install.
