Im in western suburbs. Cant help you with the grille (maybe post in chicagoland broncos or illinois broncos on FB). But as far as tube steps, I have some new steps coming, should arrive in couple weeks and I'll have tube steps available.
I love my soft top (first one Ive ever owned) and the amount of noise seems tolerable to me. I do agree with OP and the semi's. They sound like they're in the car with me but all other noise is minimal. I still plan to get a hardtop but not the Mic, I'd prefer a complete one piece so as to avoid...

Wait now, lets reel it in a bit. I dont think there are more and more defective Broncos, but you only see/hear from people who have issues. Those who havent had a problem dont say much.
