Just bringing concerns as I see/don't see them.
I think it's because the bulkheads are identical front and rear, they're different at each end on the T3'12.

At the moment the front roll bar mounts are horizontal and bit that sticks forward acts like a backstop for the front bumper upper mount.

When the same bulkhead is placed at the rear facing the exact opposite direction, the 'backstop' simply sticks out.

Although it would take an impact from the rear, the bits that stick out will be close together and low to the chassis (though still above the other cars bumper line)

I should think it's still better than those metal parts that get stuck onto the body posts to support the rear deck.
