More than one Bumper?

For this year's competition, our robot's frame is designed with two levels (Like a sandwich).. One is the lowermost part of the frame at 28" by 38", about 4" from the ground. The second level is supported directly above the first level with the same dimensions. The rules state that the bumpers on the sides of our robot must be located between 2-10" from the bottom of our robot.

My question is, if the upper and lower levels have the same dimensions, and the upper level is located 10" or greater from the bottom level, will we need to make two sets of bumpers: one for between 2-10", and another for the section of the robot that exceeds 10" in height?
