Axis color in 3D plot

Setting boxstyle on, we can have a box styled axis in a 3D plot. However, set(gca, 'color', [1 1 1]) only affects the back axis color, not the front two panels. I'm wondering if i can just display 3 side axis panels in a 3D plot, and set the axis background color to [0.6 0.6 0.6], the gridline color to [0.3 0.3 0.3]?
