Hey I just bought a custom phantom that came in a black filco case, I need a set of keycaps that 1) accommodates the winkeyless format 2) is pbt or doubleshot abs 3) something that is not a bright color, wither black, white or gray would be ideal!

So what you need is a normal base keyset along with a tsangan set that is provided. A tsangan set will have everything you need to fill a wkl board.
Most GBs have a tsangan set if you pony up a little more cash

Could you link me to such a set?

How about Nuclear Green doubleshot ABS set? There is a group buy thread on it now, and they have a winkeyless option.
-
Then...your ideal set would be Dolch set!

Can't ever go wrong with classic (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cherry-G81-1800HAU-/111447665370?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19f2cc6ada).

How about the right shift though?
What's the difference between HAU and SAU?
-
It could use a 1.75 right shift if you wanted to. Otherwise could always get one from elsewhere. H=doubleshot, S=dyesubs.

Where do I obtain such a set?

Would that work? It looks like there are some strange things going on.

What kind of keycaps are they, PBT?

I think it's cherry abs doubleshot so it is still very high quality
If it's not that, then it's PBT or POM.
POM is cool too.

Those particular ones are doubleshot ABS. Very nice high quality caps. The newer thin lasered PBT caps are a lot worse, IMHO. You'd still have to find a matching right shift from somewhere, though.
If you're willing to take a chance you could pre-order a set of Dolch from Sherry at Originative, but some people have had orders not fulfilled properly from there, so it's an "own risk" kind of thing IMO: http://www.originativeco.com/collections/keysets/products/dolch-pre-order
Or you can wait for Ivan's current GMK Dolch Group Buy to complete (or ask if anyone is willing to transfer a set to you) and see if any sets appear in the Classifieds. It's such a great set.
-
Did you check the classified? SURELY SOMEONE HAS SOME FOR SALE!

The CCnG and Cherry Replicas sets from here will fit: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=61632.0
Also, this Granite set: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=61819.0
I'm sure you can find more if you dig a little deeper, too.
