I don't think you will find stainless AD grilles. The factory didn't use
them and no one else could afford to make the dies. A stainless die would
have different dimensions than a die for mild steel as the different steels
have different amount of bounce back as it comes out of the die. Each bar is
different. That represents a huge invesment. Much cheaper for factory to
just use the same mild steel grilles and plate them.
