Is there a particular breed for the rear to be like this? (with the name written beneath the window on plastic reflective) When i see them they seem to be random models (i.e. engine size/year) as far as i have seen.

Aftermarket add-on called a 'Trailblazer' - could get them for many 80s/early 90s cars

cheers, that would explain the randomness...

so if i was to eventually get me a 205, i could mod the rear quite simply? a quick search doesn;t show any sellers of this accessory

Don't think they are made any longer - you could get them for XR3is, RS1600is, Capri 2.8s etc....think Richard Grant styling accessories from the late 80s... wink

This reminds me of one of my favorite cars when I was a lad. Mainly because of the full width reflectors at the rear.

yep, also looks loads better on the black gti as opposed to the example in my original post.

Just looking at some old photos of some of my friend's 205s and it seems that about 50% of them had one of those rear panels.
Even Porsche weren't immune, a friend's B-reg 911 Turbo seems to have something similar - probably OE though.....
