My original thought was to clean & paint the firewall only (to the upper lip) in Satin black along w/the inner wells & leave the cowl area/s as is. But, a good friend of mine whom shall remain nameless suggested 'hell no'.

I have zero intentions or desire to paint it. Ever....

Your situation (from the pics) looks like it will work well.
I had to do the firewall because I needed to get rid of the original HVAC holes. I’m doing the interior, because it just plain ole needed a freshening up. That way when riding down the road it’ll feel like a new truck while the outside is OG paint by Walter DeWayne himself.
