Shilo,
Where exactly is the paint damaged on your car?
Are those OEM tires on the car? Same for the mud flaps? If they are wider than stock...I can't blame Volvo for not wanting to pay for the paint job.

The paint damage shoulden't be his fault...
where I work we have a black 98 or 99 C70. It has the stock 17in. alloy wheels and the paint is sandblasted to hell, with the stock mudflaps. Sold it the other week though.

SAY'S IT IS THE COST OF OWNING A HIGH PERFORMANCE CAR.. A TRADE OFF HE CALLED IT... BOTH SIDES OF THE CAR FROM JUST BEHIND THE MUD FLAP TO THE BACK OF THE CAR INCLUDING THE BUMBER..
