The problem is the bumpers need to be on the bumper perimeter, which is the edge around the robot, and recessed parts of the frame are not the perimeter. So it looks to me like it's not legal. You'd have to put back the straight pieces across the front, but make them each 6" long, and cover them with 6" long bumpers. This will give a pretty small opening in the middle.

What a bummer, how vague the rules are this year on bumpers...they could have just come out and said what they wanted in the first place.
