This reminds of the hullabaloo a few years ago when someone came up with the bright idea that batteries with the anderson leads attached to the batteries were "fabricated" parts.

In the 5 years my team has participated in FIRST, we have always carried our bumpers into our regional. There is nothing in this thread that would change what we have done year after year.

We are also planning on bringing enough pre-cut plywood to make 2-3 sets of bumpers (along with noodles and fabric) for those teams that might have forgotten something. Are the inspectors going to bar those from the pits? I don't think so.
