Just my .02 but I don't think you need both dark and medium crystal and you could likely reduce the Carapils to 8 oz.
I'd also suggest moving the 15 minute to 20 minutes and then move the 30 minute addition to 10. I've found that you can lose or cover some of the rye flavor with too much bittering.
I love Amarillo with rye. I think they go great together.
