Will a ISCG-05 BB Spacer Work on a Spur?

I'd really like to have a bash ring or under bash on my Spur. I could get the Wolf Tooth Camo system, but would something like this work?

ISCG-05 Adapter

Converts ISCG frames to ISCG-05 mount for chain guides and bash guards. Compatible with frames featuring (threaded) BSA BB shell - mounts between drive-side BB cup and shell.

I'm worried that the two ISCG tabs already on the frame stick out enough that this plate will make contact with those tabs.

Edit: given that the spacer on the DUB crank is not stationary (between the BB bearings and the chainring), I'm assuming this isn't going to work unless you could actually mount this between the frame and the BB bearings but then I'd still be worried about the existing tabs getting in the way.

Camo could work, just pricey.

I used that plate on an Epic Evo, you can flip it to make the tabs closer or farther. You could possibly clock it to not interfere with the stock ISCG tabs, most guides have plenty of room to rotate them around the mounts.
The MRP plate mounts between the BB cup and frame, does DUB not use a 2.5mm spacer there on the drive side? Every other BSA BB does.

However, I think that Wolf Tooth Camo option is much better for a bash option, you could pair it with an upper guide such as the Cascade one for the ultimate chain protection.

That's what I went with on my Epic HT. I contacted MRP initially and they said they're ISCG adapter doesn't work with them, so I went with the Camo spider/bash guard instead.
