How about if I warm garage, start car and keep idle up at 1.5-2k until warmed up’d. This broken frunk has me stumped. Noise but won’t pop and I just am not feeling like taking off wheel liner at the moment.

It sounds very much like your battery is not currently dead, just that you don’t want it to die, correct?
If so, a smart charger, connected thru your cigarette lighter will work just fine. They don’t push a lot of current (and the correct lighter fuse is 15A, well in excess of what a smart charger can deliver). Back when I had a Winter Car, I did exactly that with my ‘03, for a number of years.
Lots of good advice in this thread as to how to resolve your other issue.
