I think its fine as long as the center slants are facing upward. Not the big fins but the passages in between them. Notice while looking at the front of the cooler, depending on which whay you tip it, left or right, you can either see through it or you cant. Remember the air is gonna be coming from under the right side of the cooler and traveling right to left based on the way you have it mounted. I would make sure this is the way the cooler air ducts are formed. If it isnt, I would swap it around.
