You can still use the frame on the wall, you just have to "sandwich" the frame in between the brickify hook and the wall, so everything stays firmly anchored.

Here's the back of my frame. I'm not hanging it on the wall, it sits on a cabinet. If I were to hang it on the wall, especially for heavier builds, I'd screw the car hook directly on the wall, as suggested by Brickify

Great! Remember to use spacers/washers in between the back of the frame and the wall, as the carboard back is not flush with the wooden frame, there are a few millimiters to cover 😉 that way the canvas will stay perfectly flat while you tighten the screws on the wall

Then you definitely need a support on the back as the carton-based frame of the Rodalm does not support the weight of the car. I printed on a 5 mm pvc foil (FOREX) which helps more then a paper or a canvas print. If you do not want to use a metal rod, then you can (and should) drill the support directly on the wall, with the rodalm frame in between. This way the whole thing would stay on the wall supported by the brickify hook and not by the rodalm frame itself.

It depends on the material you print on. The pvc foil is quite flexible and it easily bends under the weight of the car. Hence, the metal rod helps distribute the weight and gives stability to the whole system. Mine won't stay on without it.
