Hi Joe;
We're the one's who posited the question because of this exact problem, and because all we really wanted to use was a little piece of rubber boat fender (sort of like the rubber gasketing that goes under garage doors).
Now that Eric has made it clear that the bumpers are just another little FIRST engineer trap (like the pneumatics tend to be for the inexperienced:-)), we're going to skip this bumper nonsense and just build a strong side.
