* go to the hardware store and buy some plumbers putty and some chrome wall flanges (2.99) for a two pack)

* Get some mini reflectors and notch them with a dremel mini grinder wheel and putty them in the flange

* then notch a bolt that fits your rim and putty it ti the bolt on the back of the flange

Then Plumber's putty the right size bolt for you hub to the back of the reflector and wala




End Result

I also notched the nut with a dremel ( so the putty had some thing to hold on to and cut the bolt down to size
