This is taken from the rules, red highlight is mine. To say that the cloth does not have to cover the back is NOT what is stated in the rules. Please read the rules before making statements.

To achieve this, BUMPERS must be constructed as described below and illustrated in Figure 8 – 1.
Figure 8-1 conflicts with this interpretation of the wording.
