IHRA answers this part for 29 of its classes. 3 of those answers permit the part outright and 0 permit it with stated conditions, leaving 26 that do not. 4 of the ones that do not are classes we read as open rather than as refusing it. 26 are inferred from how the class is written rather than quoted from a rule naming this part.

Probably keep it. The class carries no stock clause at all, so anything unlisted appears to be open. The rulebook does not say so in terms, and this is our reading rather than a permission anybody wrote down.
Not permitted, not listed in the rules 22 classes
On a closed list an unlisted modification is not permitted. · A.2.2, J.1
Aftermarket bulkhead: if the rule your class applies reads
differently to you, or the rulebook has changed since this was read, ask.
We answer with the section we read it from, or that we have not read it.
