Just remember decals will eventually peel off or fade. I would spend the extra money and get actual inserts from emblempros or another sponsor.

2 years here too. No problems but eventually will get real inserts. The decals look good but up close they look kinda cheap...

I have done the front filler on two different cars. On my old 98 I did the flag colored one and it started peeling on the edges so on my 02 I did a black one and cleared over it so it wouldn't fade or peel and it still looks great!
