You're probably looking for a PBT black laser engraved kit then.

Or alternativly, you can stay around for a group buy or a seller from the classifieds.

I don't want them engraved. Thats why i posted the related picture.
I have no idea what technique they use to make black-printed(lasered) on black/dark grey keycaps.

They use Dye-sublimation on PBT plastic. The plastic is dark gray, and the dye is black. I had heard that Vortex was wanting to make keycaps like that, though who knows if they'll ever actually do it.

I think we can bank on them not doing it. But you never know.... lulz.

I've been looking for dark grey caps with black lettering for a good while (also uk iso filco tkl), and had no luck.

the closest i've come is SP but it costs almost the same as a decent keyboard to have them make a set just for you.

i've gone with the engraved set for now, had to order a few iso caps from wasd to make up for the fact that NO ONE LIKES ISO :(

Full PBT set from SP should be about $95, as long as you can get 25 orders. Be happy you don't have topre, they have that colour scheme, but it costs even more for a full set. Unfortunately, PBT is expensive.
