Please, tell me what I've screwed up on, before I go buy stuff!
 
I'd probably increase the choco and caramel malts and move the 15-minute hops to ten minutes.

Your mileage, of course, may vary.
 
I'll go ahead and move the hops, I bought and crushed the grains already, though. Thanks!
 
Thanks, I'm going to move them to 10, little less bitter, and it'll drop the IBUs down a bit, according to Beersmith its slightly over-bittered.
