Which way i have to run the black cable to have a nice,clean look?
Maybe someone can post a picture of his bike with white brakecables and black E-tube cables or do i have to take black brakecables?
White electrical tape?

I hope you are planning to get a new crankset as well. Di2 won't work with a triple.

huh... you mean Standard, mid compact or compact.
since you have a triple..I'm thinking compact ... I like the white shrink wrap idea someone mentioned already.

...
Hoe dit you do that, looks great
Marine Vinyl Restoration Coating, Sea Ray Mystic White, 12 oz. Aerosol
or maybe
Duplicolor HVP105 - Duplicolor Vinyl & Fabric Coating High Gloss White
it could even be
Rust-Oleum Fabric & Vinyl Gloss White.
The last image has the most detail and it looks to be a painted on coating, easy to do if you take your time and spray very light coats on the original cables.

I used some coloured heat shrink wrap on a friend's build a few years ago when I couldn't locate purple housing. In fact it was someone from this forum that suggested it - thanks! Depending on what colour my next build ends up being, I may be using this on the black e-tube wires.

Just use some primer, white paint and duck tape for the plugs and that is it..
The problem was, getting the damn thing off, now that I am doing complete custom paint job on the frame and the cables have to bo black agian.
