My '88 stepside bed looks the same as your '88, at least for the parts I can see. Mine has that same rear step area. It also has the twin tube bumper, which mounts through a couple slots below the tailgate. You seem to have some plastic covers over this area.
Graphics are different, and mine has a lot of areas covered with diamond plate that I haven't seen on the others in this thread. They are cut and formed to fit the cab and bed body. The only addition to the outside that my dad added was a full sheet of aluminum diamond plate that covers the top of the bed opening. I think it cost him $300-$400 twenty years ago. Thick enough that I stacked a full set of mounted tires with a couple spares on top, that I brought home with me.
I'll try to remember to take some photos when the sun is up. Raining for a couple days.
