Would the aluminum stiffeners inside a vinyl spa enclosure need to be bonded?

I wouldn't think so per the wording of Section 680.42(B) Even though the code specifies wood, I think the same would apply for vinyl. I would consult the manufacturer and the AHJ.

Re: vinyl spa enclosure
1. the spa assembly is listed as an assembly by UL.
2. Anything required to be bonded would be required to have a means to do so as part of the UL listing.
3. If there is no gound lub on the stiffener, then it does not need to be bonded.
OTOH, it couldn't hurt.

I might be wrong about this but my reasoning about this would go along these lines.
