I presume you have 3/4" of plywood extending past the corner, to overlap with the other bumper, but that doesn't count toward the 8".
I would spend the time between now and your first competition cutting two pieces of 8" channel, and making new front bumpers, so your team can do a quick replacement on practice/inspection day.
Best of luck to you.

Unfortunately, Cal is correct. You need 8" of frame (not plywood, which is considered part of the bumper). Spend the time befre your regional making 8 inch front frames. Sorry and good luck!
