Default Cable wrapping

Does anyone know where I can get some of this stuff? I don't mind what material is it as long as it keep the wires together - I don't want to use plastic ties all over it.

You should be able to find some kind of cable wrappings or wire loom in a Do-it-yourself hardware or electronics store, or an auto-parts store.

I used duct tape to round my cables, and then rubber bands or zip ties to hold them together....

I had this stuff a while ago for my LCD cable i made. I really like it cuz it keeps a tight fit on the cable. Plus it looks neat AND it doesnt take much space. its really cheap too.
