I think super sticky rubber and active aero are a given for a car that must be the fastest.
Just don't know how those vents fit in? Would the frunk be filled with cooling for electric turbo's?

I was told by my dealer what the cost would be and it's actually a positive I feel. It will weed a lot people out due to cost and not being LE. Will be for the group that likes monsters, I'm in!

maybe but i'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how intake ducts on the hood could have much aero impact. trunk is sealed, which implies you have to cut holes in the tub somewhere to exhaust the air...
proper hood-based aero:

All photos I have seen of what appears to be a GT3RS with frunk venting have had them blocked off.
Cup cars are different animals.

They were tapped, but they were there. Cup cars aren't that much different. RSR and R cars are tho. I wouldn't doubt that those intake scoops have the same use (cooling brake ducts?) as in the cup cars.

The GT2 will be entirely different from a Cup car. Besides, the frunk venting is in very different places on the Cup and on what we are assuming is a GT2 prototype.
