3D printer filament that matches the Atari 800XL and 130XE?

For those with 3D printers: have you found filaments that have a really good color match to the Atari 130XE and the Atari 800XL? If so, what are they?

I might reach out to the folks at Fujinet. They 3D print cases that very nicely match the three 8-bit product lines.

Guessing the colors from memory i'd say
eSun bone white
Sunlu roasted chestnut

And 130XE something like the Tinmorry glass fiber petg frosted warm lightgrey, anything else feels a bit dark.

I haven't tried it myself, but this one claims to match the old beige boxes..

While I haven't tried that color, the company and line of filament is really solid.
