They have to be adequately supported. Read the bumper rules very carefully. I am not involved in our team's cad design, but I know that our team has started to cad the frame with bumpers right from the start and found it super helpful. Less issues later on. (We had years in the past where bumpers were the last thing and finding places to put the brackets was close to impossible. Then once they were placed, replacing bumpers was difficult.)

Edit: Bumper constraints = frame constraints.
