That works.

The logic doesn't make sense because is the bumper is on this "outer layer"
It is on the UPPER layer, not the OUTER layer. Unless, you are saying that the upper layer is also outside of the current frame perimeter.

Quote:
we have some lower frame perimeter exposure
no rule against that.


Quote:
if the bumper covers both inner and outer layers, then isn't the bumper once again 3" off the ground?
If the bottom of the Bumper is 4" off the ground, then it is fine (assuming the top is no higher than 12" off the ground). The issue is the height of the Bumper, not the height of the frame backing the bumper.
