Short of freezing your trans fluid, I'm of the opinion you can't keep the trans and fluid cold enough. Cold mornings you may have to let her warm up in the drive way a little longer so she's not sluggish when you hit the road...but I wouldn't worry about it one bit.

I didnt know if it was like an engine to where if the fluid didnt warm enough enough it could do damage...

If it was installed properly it will be fine

Properly means the fluid MUST flow throw the radiator tank and the cooler in series NOT just thru the cooler.
