Whew, almost forgot today is the last day for this! I was originally gonna order the base kit too, but I'm a little tight on cash right now & have GMK Skiidata. So I ended up ordering the alert, extension, R5, & relegendables kits! I know shape wise KKB keys fit perfectly with GMK keys (they're not the exact same shapes, but so close you'd never notice), now fingers crossed the color matching is on point!

They're matched to GMK colors, so hopefully!! I'll keep a close eye on it!

Nice, thanks! Worst case & they don't quite match I'll just grab a base set of this when extras go live.
