The bar angle looks terrible if it were for me....which it isn't. I prefer the top of the bars to be level when it transitions to the hoods like shown in the picture below from Park. I don't think that would even be possible with your bar bend.
If you like it then go with it. Nice wrap job!

I just went the other way and swapped out Deda Newton shallow drop classic bend bars for FSA Compact Wing bars. The drop to the hoods with the classic bend bars was too much for me. I like the look but not the fit!
