[Cake] Recommendations for using cake in complex setup (wireguard + vlan + bond)

As a general rule, you want to put Cake (or any other sqm system) just before 
your bottleneck link.

That's unlikely to be the LAN links, it's almost always going to be your WAN 
links.

If you have them there for redundancy, not for added bandwidth, I think the 
right thing to do is to put Cake on the bonded (logical) interface that they 
share, but set it to a bandwidth that either link can satisfy if the other is 
down.
