Brackets for Double Sided Signs

I've been thinking about it more. Do you think this will work (see attached)?. I would use .125 aluminum, attach it into the edges of the PVC with several screws (countersunk) and then attach the aluminum/sign to the post. My main concern would be the connection between the aluminum and the pvc. Will it be durable?

I really like this idea -- my biggest concern would be the risk of damaging the sign while screwing the alum to the post. How wide would the alum strip be so that one wouldn't hit the sign with your screw gun?

3/4" wide X 1/2" web aluminum channel. full height of each side. Paint channel the color of the sign edge (outside border). Screw the channel to the posts through the inside of the channel. Then a couple face screws through the 1/2" web into the pvc sign. You could also just use a single screw into the pvc and glue it in with Lord Adhesive or 3M panel adhesive but you wont be able to get at the post screws for removal later if necessary (but that would be rock solid).
