I wouldn't worry about it if it has a DOT sticker on it.

You have to certify your helmet? Since when?!

Do you really think it would affect the structual integrity? BTW it's Sharpie...

Your helmet cannot be 'recertified'. A batch of helmets is certified by destructive testing of a representative sample, a single helmet could not be certified. The helmet will say don't mark or paint it, but I haven't seen a helmet destroyed by decorations (which doesn't mean it can't happen, it just isn't likely).
Legally, you'll be fine. If you die of head trauma in an accident, and your family sues the helmet manufacturer for failure of the helmet, they may lose.
Using Sharpies on the exterior shell will not compromise the integrity of the hlemet.
