We usually change colors in queuing, but if we forget, we change them on the field when setting up the robot. We like not having to worry about bumpers that involve extra pieces, like skirts and sets. The only time we ever remove our bumpers is during inspection.

This is the same process that Team 3200 has been using for the last 2 years. We found it a large hassle to change out bumpers completly.
