I'm confused, how would you legally support the bumper on all four sides? Anything supporting a part of the bumper other than the back would be the farthest outboard part of your robot and thus define your bumper perimeter which your bumpers would no longer be sitting on.
Your method of attachment sounds like it should satisfy the rule. I would suggest avoiding screws however as they will make it more difficult to attach and remove your bumpers,
I personally think that everybody on the team is important. No matter what, every single student, mentor, teacher put their effort all year long to get the team going. So in my opinion, Credit goes to everyone. - Arefin Bari [more]
