...where do I put my (white) Oppo decal?

Rear window, or the bottom edge of the rear quarter window on either side?

In case you were wondering where to get them:

Don't put license plates on it. Instead, put Oppo stickers where the plates should go.

Nice! Is it the TL Type S or just the TL?

And I say both rear and quarter windows!

Just the TL, but its very low mileage (47,500 km or just under 30,000 miles).

Come next spring, though, I'll be putting those nice Type S wheels on with summer tires.

And yea, I'm thinking rear quarter windows is the way to go.

Will Oppo help pay for the fine? :/

Very nice. Is that in the cards then?

It's a DD in a jurisdiction - Ontario - that has OBD-based e-tests. Should I be worried about failing the test?

As a DD gas economy is a factor, but some trade-offs might be worth it.

I think for the time being I'll put it on the things-to-think-about-getting/doing list (which is mercifully with this car).

Do you have any experience with it in this or other cars?

Does the e-test thing mean you can't tune it? Most places accept your mods as long as it doesn't throw an exhaust/cat code.

And I did not tune my Civic, but a friend who had an RSX was getting better mileage after his reflash. Don't let that scare you. It unlocks more power, but unless you have your foot in it all the time it usually helps economy too.

Nice pickup! Wish I had one! Instead I have a second gen CL. Is it a manual? Probably driver's side rear quarter window would look best in my opinion.

Automagic. With a Tiptronic that downshifts for you. Lesigh. Otherwise it feels well-mated to the engine. Shifts are smooth, sharp and seem to be well-timed.

Nevertheless, I can live with this because of the extremely low mileage and condition and also as a DD in a city where traffic is nuts, I think my left leg would fall off.

Rear quarter window gets my vote. I like having mine on the driver's side (yes we drive on the wrong side of the road in my country) as I see it every time I walk up to my car.

(I was going to post a pic of mine but Kinja is not playing nice)

Rear Quarter Window!

That's where it went on my Civic!

I put mine on the bottom edge of the rear side window (E46). Looks good there IMO. Not symmetrical, but it's not too bad.
