New arm rest colors- Help!

[bigdon-70blazer]

I need new arm rests for the 1970 Blazer. Mine were originally a light gray type color and the steel door panel was a cream colored or slightly darker. I have ordered 2 sets thinking I was getting what I needed, first a brown set and then an off-white set from Classic Parts. Brown set no-way and off white set too light and afraid it will get too dirty. I have read in the forum that painting them is not great idea because they tend to get scratched easily. Is that a true statement? Or do any of you know which company sells a light gray replacement that gets closer to what I had? Or (wishful thinking) anyone have any NOS light gray ones of very great shape used ones? Might as well ask! I need some bad! Mine were worn and faded.
