Wire harness sheath recommendations?
Alright, so with my engine out, and not enough budget to do a full rebuild at this moment, I decided to start going down the rabbit hold of making things pretty in the engine bay.
I'm thinking of rewrapping the wire harnesses with braided split nylon, but I'm open to other suggestions. I'm not looking to rebuild my harnesses by any means.
So what all is recommended? Any favorite brands or recommendations on how much to buy of various diameters?

split nylon like the hard corrugated tubing?
easy to run and durable but looks like *** IMO but your preferences may vary.
i really like the look of woven nylon wire braiding but it's a little pricy.

Not the corrugated stuff, I only use that stuff on utility trailers.
Basically, it's exactly what you posted, but it's split with some hefty degree of overlap so it doesn't come unraveled easily and is easy to install without having to remove connectors to slip it over.

Wurth sells cable sheathing / conduit that is identical (as best I can tell) with the OE material used, in different diameters. See for example http://www.shopwurthusa.com/wurthsto...-0-7MM/p/07718. I have used it for a variety of projects and repairs, works great and looks like it belongs.
