Backlit keyboard with blank keys?

So I just bought a Razer Blackwidow Ultimate mechanical keyboard on ebay for $50 (the green backlit one). The only problem with it is that some of the keys are misshaped due to it being a display model. So I was wondering how it would look like with blank black keys. Will the back light still show? I would get normal keys but they are to expensive and I'm pretty broke at the moment. If anybody has a illuminated keyboard with blank keys it would be much appreciated if I can see a picture of it. Any feedback is highly appreciated.

Do you eyeball your keys when you type?

It takes time man. Compared to the way I was ten years ago, I barely look at the keys anymore. I don't use a proper posture, though, so sometimes I lose my place on the keyboard.

Just like memorizing ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ in pre-school. Not that hard though. If you get familiarize with the keys while looking down and typing at the same time and getting a decent 40~50wpm ish(for me). You can start to learn how to touch-type in a very slow pace. Just like learning to ride a 2-wheeled bike when I was a kid and then slowly you're on your own. :)
