Looks like your headlights are in great shape. Personally I'd remove the chrome rings. To me they take away the seamless look it has without. I like them sans pinstripe too.

I rode by one just like ours on the freeway the other day, same color and wheel combo. Bone stock and clean. It reassured me I need to do nothing to mine, it's still a relevant looking car and the design is aging well. A beauty.
I like your points... The stock look attracted me to it, so if it ain't broke....
Just picked up a 2000 with 98k miles, 1 owner, old retired real estate lady... no kids, no hubby.
Dealer serviced, new ac-tires-brakes and service.
Love it!

from a different angle:

review the owner's manual

get a list of all the TSBs for your car and then check to see if any of the important
ones, especially recalls/service campaigns, have been performed

your local library may allow free access to the AllData shop 'manual' (we do,
here in Seattle)

lot of 210 DIYs here
