Well, the GDC has ruled:
Quote:
Q. May a team partially show the opposite bumper color if they are using reversible style bumpers and the majority of the bumpers display the correct alliance color.
A. No, R27 requires red or blue BUMPERS and makes no accommodation for red and blue BUMPERS.

I've seen a lot of questions this year that falls into a similar bucket - a question that is only going to have one answer, and the answer is going to be strict. This answer, for example, makes many reversible bumpers that have been OK the past few years illegal, and yet it's really the only answer you can expect from the GDC. As an LRI, I now find it difficult to allow a team to slide by, when I would have otherwise passed the pictures shown in this thread - having a straight GDC interpretation like this forces me to be more strict at the event as well. And even if I did pass them, G20 would allow the refs to disable the robot for the small sliver of the wrong color that I ignored.
