P8 bumper is a periodic colour-preserving glider reflector with a blocker attached to provide the necessary spark. The minimum repeat time is 40 ticks. For an equivalent colour-changing periodic glider reflector see p8 bouncer. A stable Snark reflector can be substituted for any bumper. This changes the timing of the output glider, which can be useful for rephasing periodic glider streams.
