But it could be considered a functional decoration.

There is no such thing as a "functional decoration" - only a NONfunctional decoration. If it has a function, and that function is to create disruptions and mayhem, then it's probably not a good idea.

Nevermind the fact that TRAILERS DON'T EVEN HAVE LIGHTS ON THEM

The game manual is not something that is printed only for mentors. Each and every FIRST competitor should read it (at least sections 5-9), regardless of team status.

Since I got such good responses, I have another question along these lines. What about painted robots and color t-shirts???

For your own sake, go read the rules.

For his sake, please stop spoon feeding him answers. At this rate, he will fail to ask some critical question, make a bad assumption.

This attitude runs a high risk of damaging your control system or disqualifying you from play.
