Red face Seibon TF wing installation

OK....so ive searched on here about the installation of the CR wing and how u need some sort of X-brace, huge washers or extra reinforcement if you want to put one on...but what about the Seibon CF version??? Im sure it weighs less than the original right?? Sooo....would you still need to get the reinforcements?? Im thinking just the washers would be enough...hopefully...thanks

It's not a problem from the weight of the spoiler, it's the downforce it generates.

i'm sure the weight of the spoiler isn't what the brace is for...it's for what will happen at speed due to downforce, since the bases are in the middle of the trunk, as opposed to on the edges like the j's wing.
