Default Lambo Door Owners Please

I was wondering how you guys with the lambo doors finished off the wire covering between the door and the front fender.

I really don't like the look of cutting the existing rubber covering in half and using a make shift wire cover but it may be the only way.

What did you do?
Please post pictures if possible.

thanks
Bruce

After I finished the wiring ,This is what I did with all the wiring ( 60 wires to be exact), trying to keep them neat and I used a Black ribbed plastic wire/hose cover (a too cheap mod) will change out when I feel like or the hubby can do it himself I zipped tied to the hinges that were secured and doesn't move to pinch the wiring

I understand, the kit I have made by Dream Car Custom doesn't require extending the wires either.
But I do have to extend the rubber door boot somehow to allow for the larger area between the door and the fender as well as the longer lift of the door.

This is the boot I'm talking about;


I was thinking about fitting two of these stock boots together somehow to allow the bigger wire span but before I "recreate the wheel" so to speak, I was hoping to get some ideas/pics from current Lambo door owners and what they did?

Please someone help
