Even if you had a straight section instead of diagonals the corners would not be protected on the inside. Oh well we will see
Here's the problem with this. In order to protect the corner on the angled side the bumper will have to extend out past the corner itself placing it outside the bumper perimeter. With this being a bumper and not BUMPER it must fit within the volume constraints and would also redefine your bumper perimeter which would be problematic.
