Aww, I don't think bumpers look ugly. If you cover them right they can add a very nice patch of color to your robot. Ours are always bright orange. Even in the off season they help attract attention and stick in peoples mind. If you have bright, noticeable bumpers its one more thing a scout might see and remember. When you are searching your mind for a team to pick sometimes you remember a team for the strangest reasons.

I don't know why you'd think they make the robot look wimpy. If you have them it should show that you put a lot of work into this robot and that you want to protect it and the other teams you might be "bumping" when your on the field. I have never seen a robot with bumpers that looked wimpy.

It should be very obvious that I am highly in favor of the bumper rule.
