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.

We have used the kitbot every year to hang our bumper. We always make sure that the rails are within a inch of the center line of the bumpers. We have zero problems with them.
