If it crosses the bumper perimeter (determined in the bumper zone), you would be in violation of <R16>, and would need to a) add extra frame on one or both sides or b) redesign.

I simply ask because I want to be sure. It's a very interesting design, and I would like to see it in action.
It says in the description that it actuates entirely within the bumper perimeter, so I'm sure they know what they're doing.


Nice design guys, should be interesting to see in action.
