Wheel Knock-offs on the 2004 Mach 1

Well it has taken me a bit of work, but i finally started installing my mustang wheel knock offs on the mach 1. The knock offs are for 05+ mustangs, so the deepth of the insert is a little short. So, i took and cut some 1/4" thick aluminum plate, drill holes, cut some 1/4 20 all thread, used plastic/metal epoxie and made round brackets. I used the epoxy to glue the all thread into little plastic cut tubes on the backside of the knock offs. I then installed the knock off on the front of the wheel, on the back, i installed the aluminum plates i made and then used 1/4" lock nuts. Now, i don't/won't have to worry about them being stolen or falling off.

Took some work on my part, but i think they look good and don't appear to be to much for the eye.
