The problem with installation is that, while physically, the bumper and not-bumper may be one single piece, the inspection process for them would have to divide them up into two distinct pieces - the 8" required for bumper inspection (and bumper weight), and the ~1" section of not-bumper that would have to be weighed with the rest of the robot, sans 8" of attached bumper. Unfortunately, there isn't a way to do that, at least, not with current FRC scales.
