I purchased a Weber Genesis 2000 BBQ Grill about 9 years ago. By and large it has proven to be a worthwhile backyard investment having produced literally hundreds of meals. However, while very sturdy, the warm-up rack and warm-up basket rusted rather early on. The rust does not come off using the wire brushes typically used to clear off the grill grates. Since we rarely place items like bread, buns and rolls in the the basket without wrapping them in foil first to provent them from burning quickly, the condition of the basket hasn't mattered much. The problem is that this also happens to the warm-up rack upon which we placed burgers, hot dogs, steak, chops, chicken, ribs, etc. Putting foil on the rack is necessary.
I replaced the basket and rack this spring simply for appearances. However, again, after just a few weeks the shine is gone and corrosion is setting in. Since food it being placed on these items, it would be much better if these items were made from non-corrosive metal.
So, if you're thinking of replacing the original warm-up rack and it's still quite sturdy, think twice before replacing; money may be better spent elsewhere... or not.

Purchased this warming rack after using Weber's part finder, but it's not a fit for Genesis Silver-A. This one measures 24" wide (without the pins). It looks like the correct fit is the shorter Weber model 3632. I figured out I had the Silver-A from the original operating manual, it's not on the grill.Best Deals for Weber 7513 Warming Rack
Exact replacement, but that's the problem! I replaced this 2 years ago. They rust away so quickly. There must be a stainless one out there somewhere..Honest reviews on Weber 7513 Warming Rack
There has been a lot of discussion in the reviews about fit of various replacement parts. This grate fit my ca 2003 Genesis Silver perfectly.The precise length of the grate itself is 24"; The grate wires extend off the end, though, making the full length 24 7/8" So, if the "body" of your grill is about 24" wide, and no more than about 24 1/2" wide, this should fit.
Those wire ends are two to a side, and are 3" apart, which fit into the detents in the grill side.

Nothing lasts forever. This won't either. But it will restore the functionality of your grill for a couple/few more years. It's a perfect fit for my older Weber Genesis Silver B.Buy it. Enjoy it. Know that if you keep your grill in good repair, it will last and last. But, to paraphrase Thomas Jefferson, eternal replacement is the price of entropy. Still, it's cheaper than a new grill.
But if you want to justify the new grill, you have my permission to carp about the price and durability of replacement parts these days. And if you invite me over, I promise to be impressed and to assure you that my old Weber ain't got nothin' on your new baby.
