I run a script when I log in that adds the resolution, then select it
via the display manager. There's an equivalent to add the 1680x1050
resolution for the other display, though that one seems to stick around
at least until the next kernel update once its added.
#!/bin/bash
xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00" 172.80 1920 2040 2248 2576 1080 1081 1084
1118 -HSync +Vsync
xrandr --addmode VBOX0 "1920x1080_60.00"

Title:
gnome-control-center display doesn't detect VirtualBox display
resolutions
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The displays panel of g-c-c fails to properly detect the display
resolutions of VirtualBox virtual displays. I can manually add a mode
for the proper resolution, refresh, etc. and select that, but the
display panel offers a set of what appear to be completely
resolutions. It seems to know there's more than 1024x768 there, but
is having trouble getting a handle on what. I'm sure there's all
kinds of fascinating debug output that would make this easier to
diagnose, let me know what you need.
