I believe the interior bumper is not ok as FIRST wants an 8" 'strike' zone to minimize damage to other machines. Otherwise below would be legal and leave a point that can cause damage to other machines. not to mention the whole 120 lb weight limit.
EDIT: It maybe good for a rule clarification about exterior angles that are less than 90* and thus protruding within the machine.
