The "bumper zone" must be between 1" and 7" from the ground... Since the bumpers are 5" tall, that gives you one inch to play with.
"BUMPER ZONE – the volume contained between two virtual horizontal planes, one inch above the floor and seven inches above the floor."
Without dimensions it's hard to tell if that configuration is legal. But as long as those gaps are all less than 8" long, you're good.
"The BUMPER backing must be supported by the structure/frame of the ROBOT (i.e. the gap between the backing material and the frame must not be greater than 1/4” and no section of BUMPER greater than 8” may be unsupported). See Figure 3-3."
Best of luck to your team!
