How to set the default the highlight/shawdow colors for BevelBorder?

Question

Is there a way of setting/changing the default highlightOuter/Inner and shawdowOuter/Inner colors of a BevelBorder?
I assume that these values are defaulted from the LookAndFeel settings and that there most be a way of changing these like one does for other defaulted values. For example:
UIManager.getDefaults().put("TabbedPane.shadow",new Color(190,220,255));
to set the TabbedPane shadow color.

This is the JDK1.4.1 source code. So it doesn't look like there is any way to change the default since it is based on the components background color:
    public Color getHighlightOuterColor(Component c)   {
        Color highlight = getHighlightOuterColor();
        return highlight != null? highlight :
                                       c.getBackground().brighter().brighter();
    public Color getHighlightInnerColor(Component c)   {
        Color highlight = getHighlightInnerColor();
        return highlight != null? highlight :
                                       c.getBackground().brighter();
    public Color getShadowInnerColor(Component c)      {
        Color shadow = getShadowInnerColor();
        return shadow != null? shadow :
                                    c.getBackground().darker();
    public Color getShadowOuterColor(Component c)      {
        Color shadow = getShadowOuterColor();
        return shadow != null? shadow :
                                    c.getBackground().darker().darker();
    }Of course you can specifiy the color in the BevelBorder constructor.
