Pedro, I fixed the code so the pics show up now.
Do you mean the wires or the antennae stubs? If the stubs, I would use sheet styrene to make them and for the antennae wires I would use monofilament thread attached with superglue.

you can also try pantyhose threads. They work well for small wires. PITA to get an individual one.
Basics are to get an old pair of stocking (panyhose) and cut a nice size chunk. Then pin down 4 corners (or tape) over a work surface. Put a bit of streatch in the nylon, it will work with you . Then find the end of a thread. Then take a pair of small scissors and cut the threads running perpendicular to the choosen thread. Its a bit slow and you will have to pin/tape the corners to keep the slack away.
Here are the results.

Just use some strected sprue and superglue. It should look pretty good!
