As a CAD guy this is a nightmare. Bumpers are going to be insanely difficult, and manufacturing this out of a kit chassis while. Maintaining the necessary strength around the high impact joint is going to next to impossible. If someone showed a similar design as custom CAD that was going to be precision machined it would be one thing but if your team is using a kit chassis (my team uses one as well for context) then this sort of design is just too complex.
Not to mention the benefits are minimal. Your wheels Will not be the first thing to contact obstacles because of the front plate and the Cog is going to be off.
Just my Opinion
