So this is the first time I have bought a mechanical keyboard and am new here. I recently bought a KBC Poker II from qtan's eBay and while it seems like a great keyboard I would like to change a few things. I really like the keycaps that come with the board, however I would like to change out the Win key and Spacebar for something that is the same but with no inscriptions. I just think that they look ugly and would like to replace them. I am kinda new to all of this and a little guidance would be nice. Thanks. ;D

Hm.. What do you need help with?
finding keycaps?
Knowing how to change them?
If you're looking for keycap sets, look out for the group buy section of this forum.
There's a gmk dolch groupbuy going on there and everyone's going crazy over it. You don't wanna miss out!

These should fit: http://www.banggood.com/PBT-87-Blank-White-Key-Caps-For-Cherry-MX-Keyboard-p-84084.html
They're not quite as thick as the original Poker 2 caps, but they're made from the same material (PBT), same profile (OEM), are cheap and blank. They may also have a slightly rougher surface texture than the Poker caps.
Best to use some form of tracked / paid shipping when ordering from Banggood, though, unless you don't mind waiting a LOONG time for them to arrive.

Thanks a ton! I'll probably order those!
