Re: bumper fold? Is there any specifics?

Thanks for the help!
All of the bumper rules are in <R08>, Section 8, Game Manual. For clarification of any of them, look at the Q&A (though if you can wade through it... let's not go there.)

When you say "extending the bumper out a little bit", what do you mean? Do you mean moving the entire bumper away from the frame, moving the bumper with the frame, or making the bumper thicker?
