Kitchen cabinet under-lights?

[John D.]

      I'm coming close to completing my first big flip.  3,600 SF house in Nevada City, CA.  Target $640k sale price.  This section of the kitchen is a little dark, I was thinking it might make sense to but kitchen cabinet under-lighting, it would be easy enough to wire, and would help make the granite pop.  Don't want it to look cheesy though, any opinions on what would work best?

 John it looks great,  I sold well over 600 New homes back in the day pre 2007 and would recommend you add a cap on the bottom edge of the upper cabinets.  It really defines the edge very well and hides the lighting that you should defiantly install.  The molding should be under $3.50 per foot and will give you the POP your looking for.
