Please see Q199 and R22's blue box.

Longer answer: If a bumper section happened to be lower than the rest of the bumper sections, but the bumper was still level and entirely within the bumper zone, I can't see anything that would rule it illegal. However, if the bumper was angled, it would be illegal per R22 (blue box), clarified by Q199.
