Looks nice though, great way to practice CAD!
The bumpers! While the plywood board gives the chassis strength again parallelograming and other stresses parallel to the ground, the bumbers provide great resistance to any forces perpendicular to the ground.

When we first built our chassis last year, we tried driving it around without bumpers. Like you said, it was not a pretty sight.

Also, when the new rules come out, check if those corners are compliant with the bumper rules. Other than that it looks great.
What exactly might be wrong with the bumper corners? I don't see anything wrong.
