I totally agree. Put your team number on the bumpers per the FIRST rules and leave it at that.
One problem I have with bumpers though is some teams must be totally color blind when it comes to matching up the red and blue from the FIRST logo. I have seen some bumper that were so dark blue they were almost black.
