Managed to lose this today at Silverstone on a track day. Must have come off when I left it hanging next to the towing eye, Anyone lost one before and how hard to get a replacement? Only OEM ones online appear to come in primer and need spraying to colour match

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Yes, generally you will need to buy one and get it painted to match. You could try: https://bumperplugs.com/tow-plug-for-porsche Let them know the colour you want and hopefully they can sort and post to the UK
FWIW I had a similar issue on a previous car (Mercedes). The part is so small it's perfectly possible to get a rattle-can made up with the paint code via an eBay trader and then lacquer to finish. It'll look fine.
Porsche only supply white requiring painting. Last time it was £65 all in.
