That looks cool! I love the innovative use of COTS items to create something truly unique.
Have you given thought to mounting bumpers? I'm not sure what the rules are on partial vertical backing (i.e. having the top of the bumper backed while the lower part is not). If you are planning on hanging them from the C-base then i'd make sure they are not only legal, but strong enough to withsand impacts as well.
