I think that the (FSA?) seatpost looks out of place, but it's very nice none-the-less. Are those tubes CF or is that paint?

They are carbon tubes. I agree about the seatpost (it is a FSA); I will either sand the paint off this one or get the newer matte black one with the revised graphics.

Yes, but I am not the first owner. So it was custom for someone else. I would have gone for a slacker seat tube angle but other than that the geometry is spot on.
That is a 32 mm setback seatpost on there. I have long femurs so I need a setback seatpost.

if you're clamping your saddle at the back, you don't need that much setback. you should be looking to clamp your saddle middle to front. you get a little deflection at the rear of the seat which contributes to comfort.

I'd suggest a new post, maybe something black with little to no decals. I have that FSA setback post and the decals are too much, especially with how clean your bike looks.
