Any luck with this initiative, vwengguy?  I'd love to add one of these to my arsenal.

Sorry :-(  Fake News from Weber Holland.
I called and talked to customer service here and the lady told me.. "yes they are in stock and the # I gave them was good. You will have to contact a big dealer to order them as it is not listed on the site."
I did my job and contacted a big dealer here that I know and asked for a deal price on 6-10 of them. He called me back in 20 mins and said that Weber won't sell them as reserve parts yet and we still have to wait!
🤦🏼‍♂️
5 members stepped up and showed interest in them asking for a total of 7 but they just won't sell them as of now.
Maybe I can call again this week and beg for them in the name of the kettle club ?
I'm trying guys... I'm just not getting far with this :-( Sorry!

Here is the last update on this grate:
I called Weber here in The Netherlands and asked if the part # was good and I asked if they are in stock .. they said yes to everything and then told me that I had to order them from a larger Weber dealer here.
So I called one of the biggest dealers here.. I know them pretty good ;-).. and I tried to order them and asked for a bulk price on 10 of them.
Then... Weber told the shop that they still won't sell the item as a replacement part because they have to keep them in stock for warranty replacements.
I'm starting to think this is going nowhere real fast :-(
I'm sorry if I got anyone's hope up... I tried.. really I did.. but they won't work with me on this. They say I have to wait another year before I can order it.

I also want to thank @RickyD for the part # for the stainless steel version..

You can add me to that list too.  I will wait for a stainless steel version.
