Realize that you are saying that a 5" wide piece of wood reduced to 4" at one (or two) locations doesn't affect structural integrity. How does that work?

The access holes for fasteners do effect structural integrity of the wood, but overall enhance the robutsness of the bumper system by getting more backing contact with the frame.
