Any other mounting hardware must be attached to the robot and be included in the robot size and weight restrictions.
Our team uses HDPE spacers to keep our bumpers offset the correct distance from our wheels. I understand these are most likely not legal bumper parts, and so will need to be included with the robot weight, but would it be acceptable to, after weighing in, reattach these spacers to the bumper, rather than the frame? For simplicity's sake, and just owing to the general design of our robot, this would be preferable.
