Will this 1K dip be an issue?
Tried to keep the whole thing within a +-5dB limit, is this a good rule of thumb?
Thanks, Luke.
Edit: I'm not looking for a flat response or anything just good listening quality, perhaps a slight smiley face EQ ideally.

Noob question:
Thank you, this helped level out the response!
Is inverting the tweeter polarity a viable, permanent solution I.E. in the finished product?
Here is what it looks like inverted and tweeked:
What if you invert polarity of the tweeter?

Thank you, that's very helpful to know!

The best thing you could do is stop simulating and carefully read this:
Paul Carmody's DIY Speaker Pages - Simulated Measurements pt1
It explains the steps you are missing before simulating (the reason Sonce stated his post with "Hmm....)".

Here is my attempt on the crossover. Crossover frequency is rather low, at 1600 Hz, which may be problematic for the tweeter, regarding distortion. Measured distortion vs frequency would be nice for the peace of mind, but I could't find it.
DC160S frequency response is problematic: there is a peak at 1.5 kHz, followed by dip at 2 kHz, and another peak at 2.8 kHz - very difficult to linearize.
