Default Re: tidy up wires

zip ties and hot glue it'll hide them pretty well. no need to spend money on other stuff. Like Mario said use black paint if needed or just make some deck plates

Default Re: tidy up wires

I gotta agree...

I took my frame braces, and then bored a hole out one side. I threaded the wiring thru the holes and along the frame member. If you don't like tye-wraps, why not try MicroPore paper tape strips, then dab matching paint on it.

Besides, hiding the loom'd cabling is muck harder than hiding the bare wires, and if they are tucked into the C-channel of the frame member, they are less likely to be seen.
