Re: R01 Question: Please save me from welding

Your best bet is to ask on the Q&A - anything you get on here is going to be opinion that may or may not be correct.

That said, I'll give you my opinion... a plate is not a minor protrusion, and doesn't fall in line with the examples provided. I would love to be overruled by the Q&A on this so I can be more lenient with teams at inspection. This is generally how I've looked at items like this in the past.

Also, the question arises... does it really matter this year? There's no requirement for the size of the frame perimeter, which makes things easier. The bumper will be backed within 1/4". The only real question, then, is if those plates would constitute a "corner" of the frame perimeter for R22 purposes.

Edit: The above question assumes the plates are within the bumper zone.
