The
wood rack on one side of your grill has likely lost it's shine as well,
but providing it's not too far gone, it can easily be brought back to
new by sanding down and applying a wood stain or wood oil.
If
the wood
is beyond repair you should be able to replace the offending timbers
from a good hardware store, and with a modest amount of research you
will be able to source suitable replacement wood for considerably less
than you would pay for a manufacturers replacement part.
