Yes you need the washer, it goes between the star shaped mounting bracket and the air filter, mine came with one. Just go out and buy one, I woulldn't be bending the mounting bracket.

The washer sounds like the best solution. Any particular thickness? Or just stick a couple in there til the screws catch?

I put a 1/8" spacer between the element and bracket so it will make the star stick out farther. I used a nylon spacer
