Nice tutorial, but for me it didnt work properly because i placed the push modifier on top of the symmetry modifier i guess. An other way to get a nice wireframe render is using the composite material, use your normal material as "Base Material" and add a standard map with "Wire" checked to the Mat. 1 slot.
I attached a render in which i used both methods, the upper one is the one with the cloning method lower one the composite method.
I can´t see major differences

huh) interesting way how to do a wire render ,, dont know but i do it with mental ray)
1. assign the renderer to mental ray
2. set up the scene
3. do a skylight there as a light source
4. turn on the material editor
5. change from standard to composite
6. the base material should be a simple color or any material which u want like white
7. the first material slot would be standard and the color change to which u want that your wire would be, check wire
8. turn on in mental ray render setup final gather
9. render )
