Starting to edit photos now. I am planning to do Al hexes all the way around, that's on the need list. Beyond axle breakage, the fact that they give out plastic hexes was kind of hoaky. I'd have paid 20 more bucks to have them in the box. I think they kit came with V2 rear hubs. Not sure exactly what you mean by the hooks on the front bumper. I'm not 100% on the front bulkhead. I'll probably run it until there is a problem.
