Solid looking concept! Make sure the aluminum posts in the corners are mounted securely, since they'll take a big impact load when you run into stuff. How are they attached to the frame?
EDIT: just realized that the frame itself will still take the bulk of the impact loads, as the bumpers are contacting it

Also, good luck getting the bumpers on and off... the c-channel mounting hardware at the ends of the bumpers runs into your superstructure mounts in the process. Maybe just need angles instead of c-channels for those.
