I am fairly certain the car has been poorly repainted. There is over spray in areas that I think the factory would have been more careful about, the stone guards are painted blue instead of black, and it's about 3 different shades of blue.

They do protect fairly well. But, IMO they look kinda slapped on, not really integrated.
Cars ordered new without them have there fair share of dings along the creaseline that runs down the side of the car. The door guards protect this.
The stone guards would've come either body color or clear from the factory (depending on car color), never black. The black stoneguards were only on the 911 series. and (sometimes) on the 924 CGT. Bad repaints are pretty easy to spot. Overspray (or complete paint over) on any of the following: seals (especially those on the base of the mirrors), license plate bracket, bumperettes, lights, etc. Sprayed mirror base seals are typically a tell-tale sign.

Unless it falls out over time, I don't think the factory put a plug in the hole.
Take care!
