I have a qfr and looking to get a new set. I am looking for either blanks or the old school ones that are light gray/ dark gray. Where would be the best place to get it? I read that wasdkeyboards space bar won't fit properly. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!Imsto white/grey blank PBT are about 50-60 bucks. Lots of people prefer PBT to ABS once they try it. The texture can be slightly different but IMO the durability and lack of visible degradation (that is, shine) really make PBT keys worth the switch.
If you buy a set from Signature Plastics, make sure you buy a set of extra stabilizer inserts from WASD keyboards. The standard inserts are very loose (i ended up using hot melt glue to stop mine from falling out :P)dude... just cut a ~4mm square of clear tape and put it on the stem before pressing the key on
here is imsto's thread about his:

pretty widely regarded as the best brand-new PBT caps you can get for MX switches other than NIB NOS cherry.
you can see pics of the white/grey set here http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.3.w4996320547.15.DBnAuX&id=16466008966&
I really like some of his sets. How do I buy from him?
If you're looking to get a fully compatible, full set of keycaps, WASD (www.wasdkeyboards.com) sells nice ABS keycaps in OEM profile. You can get them blank, laser etched, or engraved. Multiple colors are available, and you can design your own layout on their website. The spacebar fits a QFR just fine.
If you want double shot ABS instead, Signature Plastics sells standard sets on their marketplace page (www.keycapsdirect.com). You can get them in either black with white print, or white with black print. Full sets cost the same, $60, as the WASD full sets. These area also fully compatible with your QFR.

Uh WASD's 104 keyset is $49.99 etched or engraved... & $39.99 blank.
Now SP is $60 for just an 87 keyset... definitely not the same price.

No worries... SP's 87 key pricing really does not make sense to me...If you're looking to get a fully compatible, full set of keycaps, WASD (www.wasdkeyboards.com) sells nice ABS keycaps in OEM profile.

Sorry, I was thinking of the price from the custom keyboard designer. :(

Teflon tape works really well too.
