My opinion: Do whatever YOU want. Personally, I'd probably put that sticker in the opening under the air lid.

Good Luck

I went to a local decal guy and he should have some prototypes done next monday or so. I think he is going to try some fade colors so I will definitely post some pics when he gets done.

It will be nice to have something like this that I KNOW no one else has.

DO IT!!! But make it something like...Tuners Swallowed Here. Or Rice Eaten Here. If you're gonna put a sticker in a place where nobody else would have it, you might as well use a sticker that nobody else would use.
