pic request: show wiring

[myvanpounds 10+ year member]

I know you've all seen them..either in the magazines, at car shows, or on the internet. SHOW WIRING. you know... where all the wires are displayed in a neat and tidy fashion. I'm having a hard time finding pics of show installs and their wiring. instead I keep finding all these pics of rat nests. well the dbdrag finals are a ways away and I need some ideas before then. I'm going to build an amp rack to display my amps but I thought it would look a little plain so I want to display the wiring in such a way to show the 1/0 power wire that's distributed (hidden distro box) to 3 4ga power wires 3 4ga grounds 2 rcas 2 channels of 12ga speaker wires and 8 8ga sub leads (4pos 4neg). I know that stuff like this can net some points at shows so theres gotta be some pics out there

I think it's half about creativity. Adding loops & arcs symmetrically to wiring (see battery pic 2), sometimes winding or braiding if not obnoxious. Bonus points if you can make the wire look like it "wants" to go in the direction it's heading, if you know what I mean.

Then there are little touches that make a difference, like just a few zip-ties rather than a ton, same with cable clamps. The plastic hole grommets in the first pic do a lot to clean up the transition thru the rack. Otherwise just cleaning it up & hiding the bulk of the wire plays well & keeps things looking simple.

How about this - who has the ugliest, most disorganized, totally ghetto wiring job?

Duct tape, wire nuts, bad soldering experiments all encouraged to apply.

Let's see some pics!
