Default is a illuminated porsche sign tacky for the kitchen ?

random i know but was wondering if its "nice" or if its just plain sad ?

i think its a nice touch but then i also wear pink t-shirts and like tigerstripes

just wondering if im right on this one

its sort of to match the coffee maker and toaster,,,, im worried it may be looked at as "joey" in friends when he dresses in porsche stuff pretending he owns one

I suspect in your house, it would be one of the classiest things present

Ginghe, sounds a bit sad tbh but get some pics up of the kitchen and the sign you're after and let people decide after to see if it will fit in with the decor.

Can you not re-model the sign to read cosworth or something.
It's only a rope-light version, yes?

does it really matter what everyone else says, its your kitchen so have what you want. it would be far more sad to not have what you want just coz other people might think its sad

if you had a 50's style kitchen ie fridge etc, i think you could get away with putting a harley davidson or chevrolet sign up but a porche sign in a norm kitchen would look pants imo
