Maybe some day Kool Stop will make something a little more authentic looking - but I suspect they are catering to a customer base other-than C&V, which probably accounts for but a small percentage of their sales (based on their current catalog).
Kool Stop Continentals do come in gray, but the orange ones brake better. You could also try Cane Creek grays.
