As the rules currently are and how the Q&A have answered questions on this subject: The parts in excess of 120 lb can be taken off & put back on. You have to go through re-inspection though. If the total of the parts are less than 120 lb & inspected initially, they do not have to be reinspected.

Parts added in the district open bag time counts towards your fabricated parts weight allowance for that event. Parts fabricated during the open bag time don't. So if you are Zebracorn fast, you can fab up an extra robot (excuse me spare parts) during open bag and bag that.
