Hi, I agree.

Make a whole set and paint/dye them all the same. Then you will have what looks like an intentional set, rather than a mis-match.

Alternatively, you could visit Retrotech and find a replacment in the bins of spares people have. I've found every control knob replacment I've needed at such places.

The printed ones will be fine until you find an original or three.
