That's the issue we have... We are concerned that this may violate rules.

These bumpers aren't COTS (definition of COTS), therefore, they are fabricated items. The problem comes up when you realize that the definition of fabricated item implies that the team builds it.

As your team would probably not be counted as a sponsor, the teams who buy these bumpers would have to account for both materials and labor in their cost accounting. (cost accounting rules)
