So I think looking for a cheap G80 with a fitting bottom row could be the cheapest solution for me, as long as the base-colors of the mods are the same. Otherwise I would have to buy a whole PBT set from imsto/GMK/SP, which would be too expensive for me I think. Or is there anything where I can buy only the mods/bottom row.
What do you mean by colorful Kint, I cant really think of something that would work fine, a link would be cool.
Well, it all depends on how picky you are anyway.
First, lasered 105key G80 with bicolour caps don't come in cheap, they tend to go for 20€ on ebay, for some (or this very) reason. Sometimes even 35, and they are not that common, rather the once every two months kind of.
Second, the colours of the lasered caps will differ quite some, as I said.
The lasered grey caps have a slightly more brownish hue, where the dyesubs have a tint with olive or grey. Depending on the light either the lasered (in bright), or the dyesubs (in dark surroundings) appear more saturated. And of course the high contrast of the legends amplify that.
The white lasered caps have a rather cream white tone, where the dyesubs again have a grey or olive tint, making them a colder white -in comparison.
Spot the dyesubs (and no cheating
)

Third, with colourful I meant something along the lines of these:

as I tend to rather go all out than have a slightly off colour, which - depending on my mood - can be anything from, "I don't look at them anyway" to "this really ticks me off". YMMV
