The only change I would make is to use more pilsener malt and less pale malt.

The color is too light for a Belgian Pale Ale, if you want to brew 'to style'. I add a miniscule amount of Special B in mine for color and a little depth of flavor. It is cited at 8-14 SRM according to BJCP. You may want to add some biscuit or other toasted malt in there to get the aroma right. I think I use about 30% Munich in mine.

I went off of the style guides in beersmith, I've got both munich and special b on hand. I'll change it up a bit and see how she works out. Any comments on the hop additions? I'm not really sure what most belgian pales use so I just put in what I had on hand.

forget the 2-row. use a pilsner base (belgian pilsner if you can get it) and drop several pounds of munich in to add some nice maltiness.

definitely add a small amount of special b, too.

i added a bit of caravienne to my last belgian pale. it was fantastic, tasted like de koninck

EDIT: if you can get some styrian goldings, i'd use some of those for flavor. other than that, your hops look fine.
