The reason that NO ONE has bothered to re-make these in the past is
because you can not get the material any longer.
They are not just plain black, they are textured...sort of like the
grip they stick onto metal stairs... or like the vinyl tops you see on
cars.

All you need to do is to make a texture wheel at Mold Tech in Youngstown OHIO 
and take a plain piece of vinyl and roll it.  Mold Tech has about 10 
embossing plants throughout the world. There is also a place outside Niagra Falls 
although I forget the name at this point.

The cost for the embossing rolls are about $300 to $600 for what is needed 
here and not a hardened steel roll.

Its not a big deal it just takes someone to do it.
I make a number of parts but this part is not one that is going to have a 
quick payback.

You can have the vinyl cut easily and you can buy it in bulk and that is 
where the cost is 
You need to buy a roll.  

So there it is how to do it and where to go for the texture anyone out there 
want more names and locations for people that supply this stuff (vinyl 
supplieres are all over the internet see vinyl on any search engine) I will give you 
the leads.
