Default Slim S tank panel - opinions?

What do you think of this? Just thought the original tank panel is a little boring. Suggestions on mounting?

Blkline69 thanks for the suggestions. I saw them a while ago but forgot about them. I think I may order the tool bag.

Unclesam, thanks for the pic. It is beginning to grow on me.

That looks good, similar to the pouch I used for my Slim S horn cover



And you probably saw my older post about adding bullet casings to my tank bib
