WTF??????????
Reminds me on when my friend's FIL drove his 968 into a puddle thinking it was a few inches deep, and surprise, the water went up to the windshield. Had the car not been less than 1 year old ($95K new) it would have been totaled. Repair cost: $36K at an independent shop; most of the repair bill was for modules and front end wiring harness.
The front firewall area of the Porsche looks very similar to the spare tire well/rear inner fenders of the X5. Nothing but wires and electronics everywhere you look. This is NOT an area to get wet.
I think this was your wife's way of telling you: "Honey, from now on it is your job to clean my car. Look at what happens when I do it!"
