I was an inspector at Alamo this weekend and we had a lot of issues with bumpers. Here is rule for bumper attachment.

[R27] E. must attach to the Frame Perimeter of the Robot with a rigid fastening system to form a tight, robust connection to the main structure/frame (e.g. not attached with Velcro). The attachment system must be designed to withstand vigorous game play. All removable fasteners (e.g. bolts, locking pins, pip-pins, etc.) will be considered part of the Bumpers.

At Alamo we tried to be as lenient as we could while still ensuring that robots were safe and would not damage the field or other robots. I don't see how a number could be too wide unless it was wrapping around the side of a bumper or was not easily readable because of how it was skewed.
