Wrap Around Bumpers

I saw several teams with bumpers that wrapped all the way around the robot (233, 71, 135, etc..) as seen on 233 in this pic.

How exactly were they made, is the plywood two seprate pieces for perpendicular sides, or is it bent around?

Thanks

Any tips for attaching bumpers? 294 still hasn't found a way to do it that isn't cumbersome. We're making a prototype base now and want it as realistic as possible so were building the bumpers and mounts as well.

EDIT. Brad: It really threw me off too. Thanks for the advice on the flaps, that solves our main issue.
