Bumper modification

Some people on our design team are wondering if it's legal to cut the bottom section of the bumpers off at, say, a 30 degree angle so that it would not interfere with ascending the ramp at the end of the match. The "10 degrees of vertical" rule states that it applies to all parts of a robot "that might push against another robot." Also, I'm unsure as to whether the specific bumper design rules allow for modifications. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
