Not true. There is a list of acceptable bumper parts of which pins are not one.

There are 2 things wrong with these bumpers (that I can see, there may be more). As an LRI the color is the first issue. The build quality is is the second but higher in issues. I would not pass them as there is all of this loose, unattached fabric which will cause other robots and field elements to get in your bumpers.

The quality or lack of shows the effort and dedication a team places on themselves and the robot. Take the time and don't try to cut corners. Be proud of your robot.
