Not sure about current-day stuff, but I've done LOTS of research on 80's plates. There is no standard whatsoever. Most of these were crudely cut-to-fit by the mechanics before the race. Materials range from plastic to thin cardboard. Some had pre-punched holes, others not. A perfect material is a plastic For Sale sign. Find a big one with a large blank white area.
