o hai steve.
FRP is the flight refuel probe. you can see it in the picture i posted up.
the APU (auxilary power unit) is on the left hand engine bay door, a small rectangular hole. it is a small jet engine that starts the main engine.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

That is where the Flight Refuel Probe is
That is where the APU is
Also, ditch that tail fin design and go with an operational 3(f) Sqn one ffs

Needs the gun/strakes too. They are essential in creating lift.
This one has guns
This one has strakes
I know the bottom pic is an AV-8B variant, but they are the same strakes.

The MAW dome is a different shade of grey as it has radio-transparent paint on it.
Also don't forget the formation lights.

Will you be painting on the leading-edge rain erosion to the tail fin and wings?
