I'm diggin' it Paul! That thing will settle in nicely. Looks like your template was right on as well.

My only suggestion would be to think about trying a lighter color. It's hard to tell from those pics but it looks like a lighter brown might work better for you. My natural color doesn't look right on me. I'm about a #7 matching up with my existing hair but for some reason I have to go 1 or more shades lighter for maximum realism.
