Not new to mechanical keyboards but for most of the ones I've had the stock keycaps were always "good enough." Now however I'm considering picking up the RK Sink87G because it checks a lot of boxes for me (TKL, mechanical, 2.4ghz wireless) but I absolutely hate the font of the legends on the stock keycaps. 

 

I'm trying to find replacement keycap sets that would be compatible but having a bit of difficulty. Looking for PBT with shine-through for the backlighting, obviously. I am not a fan of the "pudding" look. Any suggestions? 

 

Thanks!

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.
