If you intend to follow the rules, then there is only one way, bolts.
Please read the rules for bumped design specifications.

<R08> "...STANDARD BUMPERS must be constructed as described below.... STANDARD BUMPERS must be
attached to the ROBOT with a boltand-
fastener system to form a
rigid, robust connection to the
ROBOT structure..."

We used bolts with lock nuts so they won't come off during competition.

Do you have problems fitting into the box for inspection?

I would use bolts, assuming your pit will have a wrench.

Good luck:)

Uhm, didn't the post state that they're using bolts? With lock nuts. Or maybe I'm missing something here...
