I know this is a loaded question with many opinions.

I am restoring a Genesis 2000, that did not come with grates and flavorizors.
I am restoring it to showroom condition.
Will purchase flavorizors from rcplanebuyer.

The question is which grates to purchase?
I 'believe' it came originally with with porcelain coated cast iron grates. There are new Weber replacements (7526) available but I understand that these are not the same quality as the original.
If I could find a new (NOS) set of the original ones I would buy them, but that is unlikely.

So, should I buy the really heavy duty stainless ones rcplanebuyer sells or are there alternatives I should be considering?
 
Agree with LMichaels, rcplanebuyer makes some killer grates and flavorizer bars. I have the cast iron on my 1000 with his SS flavorizer bars. The cast iron is a definite upgrade over the porcelain ones. They just won't die, that's why I haven't purchased RCs SS ones.
