You would not believe the stuff I've found at champs on robots that had passed inspection and reinspection at 3 or more prior events...

I totally get the whole reinspection part vs a regular inspection. From a quick visual, our bumpers are clearly not modified in anyway. I should have clarified that in my initial explanation.
