The sport package has been around from the beginning, but, originally, it was just body color bumpers/grill, and that's about it. With the 98.5 refresh, the sport model got a different front bumper, grill, and dual bulb headlights. Only the sport trucks got the dual bulbs. Your truck has been modified (obviously....
) from how it came from the factory. Likely the chrome grille was installed because that's what the front bumper was designed for.

While looking on Carid for headlights (good sale right now) almost pulled trig but got to thinking about that bumper up front and access. Yikes. Was out at 2 a.m. with a flashlight and driver's side I MIGHT be able to unscrew the sidemarker, passenger with my thinnest phillips enh. Even using an offset thin profile from underneath to free the sides, I fear I'm not going to have the clearance needed to wiggle the fronts out n back in, that bumper don't flex. If I have to drop the bumper it's going to need taken somewhere with equipment to handle that weight. I'm def not loosening bolts while underneath there haha. Headed out today with a 3M headlights restore kit. Will post pics if it works, hope so cuz dropping that beast is not in my summer plans.
