Default Help,,best place to get new cables?

Got the new 10 1/2" mini apes on the bike,05 superglide coustom,using original cables, lines,and controls.
It looks like crap!!
I got everything to work, now i'm ashamed for anybody to see it. The brake line looks like crap, and the clutchcable is tighter than i would like.
I like the look of the stainless braided cables, do they make kits that have all the cables and lines?
I'm also going to put new grips also.
Any advice or info will be welcome.
Thanks John

I don't know what your priorities are in your cable search, price vs. brand name/quality, but here is a source from eBay.

Another consideration, if you want black,may be the stock cables from an 08 Street Bob or Wide Glide. They will give you the length and the OEM brake line on the 08 is a black braided line.
