I would be in straight away and offer to replace it with a new tree or shrub. The amount of times i see things ripped out after thinking it would make a good bonsai. You might find they don't like the thing and would like all the grass being smooth so you could turf it for them.

I can't see all of tree 1 , but i would keep tree 2 as a garden tree. Sometimes its best to use what you have and make the best out of it. That is such a good tree already and sometimes you need pieces like this to break up the space. You could dome the top more to go with the shapes of the...
