Could have at least used an ‘rsr’ front valence:
(I have to admit, I’ve thought about it rather than cut my frunk)

You really don’t have to cut your trunk to fit a gt cooler. Air intake through the factory plugged holes. Air exit through the factory access holes in the back of the trunk ( they are just held in with seam sealer. Add a fan pack for stop and go traffic. Setrab makes a complete kit that won’t require cutting other than 2-1” holes for the lines. BTDT.

Those should come off easily when encountering a steep incline or tall speed bump.

Salesman is assuming that the car is worth lots of money because it belonged to a prominent German Rockstar.

Early POC racing days, I used the Mazda RX4 front oil cooler mounted inboard and just use the "Remove the round plastic plugs" method for air inlet. Then a trip to the local dismantler yard for a spare Frunk lid.
Neatly cut a gt40 style vent exit, finish with a small 45° metal flap facing back= and pulled lots of hot oil temp from the 2.7L turbo.

Closer look.
Current times today I use same cooler with a GT oil cooler shroud, and removed the 2 trunk floor knock-outs for warm oil cooler air to exit.
