While I admire the Made in America stickers and what they represent, stickers have no place on a muffler, stack, etc. I say this because if they don't peel off easily the adhesive can often leave a stain, or not you wind up leaving scratch marks on/through the protective coatin gof paint to get the sticker scraped off. Either to nice for a "showing" tractor, and mufflers rust quickly enough already without giving the rust easy access to the metal under the paint with scratch marks. On the other hand if you let them burn off they usually stink. Dad put a new stack on his Deere over two years ago and the remains of the factory sticker (it was rather large)still stinks when it gets hot.
I complain about stickers on stuff all the time, regardless of what they say. They always seem to be stuck in the worst places and wind up taking extra time to peel and/or scrape off and often wipe down with some sort of cleaner to remove the adhesive before the part can be installed. When I'm on the customers dime and have a dozen of part A to install and have to scrape off and clean up after a dozen stickers the labor cost on the job obviously is going to go up for the extra time.
Like I said I imagine what the sticker represented was appreciated, it was the sticker itself that wasn't, and for good reason.
