No. The intent of Rule <R08-M> is to ensure that sufficient structural reinforcement is provided to the BUMPERS to allow them to withstand the high-speed, high-energy impacts that are likely to occur during a typical Lunacy MATCH without failing. A simple flat 1/8-inch aluminum plate mounted on standoffs is unlikely to provide the required structural support for the BUMPERS.
