The cover should be refitted, its there for a very good reason.
Just leave the wiper linkage alone, it was designed & built like that for right hand drive 206's.

The linkage is there to give the wiper the correct sweep across the screen.
I have seen single wiper conversion kits available online, but apart from that, I don't think you can remove the linkage so the wiper works the old fashioned way.

Could be converted to the left hand drive set up BUT it just wouldn't clean the screen as well in front of the driver sitting on the right.

Get a new cover OR paint the original one.
Possible wind noise + its there for safety to stop things getting caught in the moving wiper linkage.

Regular use of "back to black", shoe polish or one of the other tricks for returning the original black colour.
