Laura,
To update them, can you paint them? Or collage them with photos, pictures or posters or even material.
The amterial can be adhered or wrapped aroundif thin enough to still fit in the tracks.
You don’t even have to do them all you could do just a few in a pattern of whatever you want to do.
Laura,. Take them down and paint them on a flat surface, and you can roll it. Put them back up, and your done. Aloha!
You can paint them with wall paint after a good vacuuming. Take the off the grid that holds them in place. You can also paint the grid. Maybe use a new color other than white.

We took ours out and painted the pipes and all. https://www.alifeunfolding.com/blog-1/2020/11/1/painting-the-basement-ceiling-dark-week-four-one-room-challenge?rq=ceiling
