If it bothers you too much maxkeyboard.com makes a translucent black spacebar that will fit any corsair keyboard. It won't match the other keys perfectly but it's still a very viable option. I do love the textured spacebar on the original K70 though, I wish that was for sale as an accessory item. Here is a picture of what it looks like on my K65 http://i.imgur.com/yF8ibb9.jpg
