No, the holders have loads of mounting options & as the bumper is curved it's best to put 1 screw in the top left and top right of the holder.
They are metal pressed plates from eBay, £18 odd.
Il be fitting them on this Astra with just tape. Good thing about metal ones is you can carefully bend them to the shape of the bumper anyway.
Here's a set of metal pressed screwed on my BMW I just swapped for the Astra.
