I've been spending some time looking at different wire tucks and methods of making wiring more clean and subtle. Recently I build a 4AGE 20v Blacktop harness from scratch for a customer, and took the opportunity to loom the harness entirely in heat-shrink tubing (no seams). I think the results are pretty nice and make for a really clean look, but I wanted to get some comments.

it looks good, but part of the reason why the factory harness uses that thick plastic tubing is to protect the wiring from engine bay heat. right now there isnt much in terms of protection.
