please do not use anything but black! Colored wire loom will look bad, reason being is you can NEVER make wiring look great and flow perfect, so therefore your loom will look the same way, they do make some mesh split braided wire loom thats black and looks great....
here is the link

May I suggest a chrome wire loom. There is a company that sells a really good chrome loom and it is NOT going to melt. Bently Harris Convoshield is the name of the product and it is sold under this copmpany's name: http://cableorganizer.com/convoshield/

If you search around, you'll be able to find a kit of loom that has all different sizes, I used to have blue loom in my engine bay for a while, until I decided to tone it down and just go with black. I can't remember where I ordered my blue kit, but I know that they also had red, yellow, and maybe green.
