Won't solve your issue with the looks, but one little trick I've always used for my antenna's is to always save all the little servo arms you end up clipping or breaking off. As long as they have three good holes, they work perfect as an antenna keeper. Just pass the antenna through the first hole, then loop it around a rubber band and back into the second hole, on the back feed back into the third hole and pull it tight between the second and third. Before doing this, you can adjust how much "slack" you have in between the first and second hole to adjust length, etc... When your done, you can wrap the rubber band on the horizontal fin and it makes a perfect keeper. Also works great on planes, just stick a push-pin in to attach the rubber band to. The servo arms also work great as strain reliefs for the antenna. Before exiting a hole, or going into an antenna tube for example, put one of these arms on it (only two holes are needed for strain relief). This will put the stress on the relief itself and keep it from "pulling" on the wire attached to the receiver.
