I've got this American style Wheat Beer planned, and just wondered if it looks somewhere near right, as I haven't brewed this style of beer before?

No dry hopping planned I'm afraid, trying to brew something fairly subtle.

The only change I would make is to increase your wheat malt to 500 g more than the other base.

Lose the whirlflock, haze is your friend when making wheat ales. Your recipe looks fine however you can do stuff like add a little spice, use some unmalted wheat add some citrus rind (lemons, oranges etc) and just generally have some fun with it.
