mount water bottles onto carbon fork

I have a carbon road bike I plan on using for a weekend tour. Due to space constraints I need to mount the water bottles somewhere other than the main triangle (I'm using a frame bag as well as a saddle bag). I was thinking of using these from Topeak to mount water bottle cages on each side of my carbon fork:

As the forks weren't meant for this, is there any danger or things I should watch out for? These are plastic mounts so I'm not too concerned about damaging the forks but may use protective tape just in case.

Thanks for the help!


P.S. I'm using a 2007 Specialized Roubaix Comp Triple.
