The left and right bolts do protrude because they are at an 8° angle to the flat of the plate and have angled packing washers to facilitate this. I did not produce a drawing, instead I used the undertray itself to provide the hole locations, marking the plate through the center of the plastic...

In my pothole adventure with our MG4 Pothole gives MG4 concussion. I mentioned the undertray was displaced downward and full of rocks. I removed it after devising a way to safely place the rear of the car on stands. The tray is held in with 9 6mm hex head bolts with large washers and 4 Phillips...
