Bike without brake guides for rear brakes.

Hello all! I just received my Zycle Fix Prime. It came one one flat bar front brake, and in addition i ordered lever brakes and extra caliper brakes with break wires. I noticed there is no brake housing guide to hold the wire going to the rear brakes. Any solutions to keep the housing in place?

Thanks in advance!

I'd use the metal guides myself but this does have a certain appeal.
