Here’s a faded red bmx seat I found, could be a good look for this build.

Hoping you keep the rat-ina on the frame, I'd go middle stem as well. That seat should fit your vibe, if not your anatomy. 
Thing about BMX seats is, nobody hardly ever sat on them. Big boy BMX cruiser is a little different. But for showing the bike, and a brief ride video, it should work well!

since nobody picked the right stem, you can send that over to my orphanage for unloved parts. I'll take good care of it!
Midnight Mock-up and some seat options - BMX Viscount or Leather Wrights?
I like the leather better
Some perfect patina on the post clamp - thanks A.S.Boltnut for the S bolt on this clamp.
Faded Glory, perhaps I'll run it upside down?
Was actually thinking of running some clear grips and putting beer stickers on the bars underneath?!?!?
That's ^ what you call 'su-beer-minal' advertising....
Been lazy for a week or so, but managed to put two parts together last night...........

Great build, all patina, throw in some BMX, sounds like fun to me.
I’m trying to find some crusty red comp III’s to more bmx’y
They still make the new Comp III tire. You could rub some 100% acrylic paint on them to 'age' them with the rest of the bike. That's what I did with my Desert Rat Columbia and the new tires I used on that build. I used a 'plaid' color, kind of a dirty gray. Maybe a faded red color, or even a cream color rubbed on the red Comp's would reduce the vibrancy and age the tire. Here's mine before, and after the application.
