Hey, any recommendations for a block off?

Been DDing mine for a week now and I know from previous oil temp monitoring it does not get up the temp DDing. I haven't DD it since I got the cooler so would always do some pulls to get it up when I was out. Right now I am shifting at 4k minimum and keeping RPM between 3-4k when crusing, not going into 6th gear ever. A/C use also dramatically drops temps particularly at idle.

Right now I am using a cut out cereal box and painters tape. The way it has been raining it probably fell off by now.

I was thinking cut out a piece of plastic and duct tape/large zip ties. Would a zip lock bag plastic be strong enough/not melt or do I need something else.

I might just disconnect it for the time being and zip tie the adapter in a bag in the engine bay so I don't have to remove the whole thing.

Edit: If I recall my oil temps on the street were 180-190, and 160-170 with air con, less than 170 with air con at a stop. That is just my best recollection Need to run torque app again
