If the blue part is actual robot frame, then no, this is NOT legal. Those aren't bumpers, because they're not on your frame perimeter. Your frame perimeter is a straight line that goes from one side of that opening to the other. In that drawing, your frame perimeter is basically a square. And you need bumpers for atleast 6 inches in both directions on each and every corner of that square, supported at both ends by robot structure.

Again, your drawing there won't pass inspection and you'll be making major changes to your robot on Thursday. Please don't do it.
