you want to go ahead and gound on the body of the car (like the trunk floor), i'm not sure what the spot you are referring to looks like, but you want the ground to be on bare metal.

That's where I have my amp grounded. Scrape off the paint if you can.
I tried moving the ground and didn't notice any difference, and I left it on the strut tower so the cable would be under 3 feet.
