Just route the wire's real nice like and try to keep them hidden when they drop from the gutter to the motor.. Also a little trick I learned was to use corresponding colored zip tie's and tie the wire's to the back side of the item's they run near. I will try to find a pic of mine..

I just used plastic loom and cleaned up bad wires. rerouted them where I could....used some polishing compound on the firewall itself to brighten it up a bit....dropped the fenderwells out with the front wheels off and sanded/repainted in a day.
