Question Bumper segments

We are helping a new team this year, and I believe we have run into a unique problem with bumpers.

None of the sides of the robot are six inches long (It's a 12 sided 'bot).
And the GDC seem very strict about not putting plywood into the corners.

So how do we build bumpers that are more than six inches long and do not have plywood in the corners. Even if we made two bumpers that each covered half the robot, those bumpers would have plywood in the corners.
How do we overcome the problem?
