Not only is the cRIO kinda expensive, it's a big heavy brick with a good bit of inertia and not the sort of thing you want to come loose inside your robot. It may take you hours to get everything back the way it started. Or you may never get it back the way you started...

Can I quote a rule and fail you at inspection for mounting it that way? No, not really, unless I think it is a safety hazard. Am I going to suggest strongly that you change it when I see that at inspection? Probably.

Instead of the zip ties (which really should never be used to attach anything with any significant mass to the robot) can you get a couple of bolts through the Lexan and into the frame without them touching the cRIO case? That would be your best option.
