Default Driver's side Integra Type-R sticker thingy

Okay, so i've noticed this on a handful of ITR's including mine....but the Integra Type-R sticker on the driver's side seems to be at an slight angle. Can't really see it up next to the car, but whenever i'm about 10ft-15ft away i can notice it....i notice shat like that and it annoys the hell outta me. Anyone else notice this?

You shouldn't look at your car with your head tilted then.

Seriously, I haven't noticed.

i know what you're talking about.

the apparent "slant" of the driver's side quarter panel "INTEGRA TYPE" sticker can be due to one of two things: 1) human error (if the sticker has ever been replaced, it might be a little bit off), or 2) the bowing out of the quarter panel towards the wheel well (fender "blistering," such as that of the front fenders of the S2000). i know that there's not much of a blister to the Integra's rear quarter panels as compared to the S2000's front fenders (when viewed from the top of the car, they're imperceptible), but that's the only other explanation that i have for the sticker looking like it's slanted, especially when you're not looking at the sticker at eye level. when you're looking at the ITR from 15 or more feet away, whether standing or sitting, the sticker is going to appear to be slanted.

so don't worry, you're not the only one that's been bugged by this before
