Yes, I feel like this is a bit of a design slip-up by Volvo for the folding boot liner. Although I guess it makes it easier to store under the floor?

I am sure some marketing guy would give it a spin that "its been designed with a protective all weather "hood" to stop things falling into your grocery bags (or similar)"

I folded it completely down onto the rear shelf using the creases as I had the awful canopy look as well.

I'll try to get better pics tomorrow during the day.
Much appreciated Tux R40.
Hopefully these are better.

I can't remember the last time (if any) I had mudflaps.

But have to say these look great and living in a rural area I'm very tempted

Senwar. I am weak. I gave in.

Car is getting filthy way to quickly. Ordered a set yesterday and should be with me tomorrow. It probably won't stop it completely but will at least slow it down a fair bit.

:D

Don't blame you though. Perhaps its due to them matching the bottom trim of the car but they just look ideal and part of the car already.

Where did you order yours from?
