That sucks, but they should be able to buff/polish out the overspray without damaging the original paint, and without respraying the car.

Dont accept a polished/buffed car, swirl mark city!!! My 03 was prepped and had swirls from day 1. I regretted not returning it until I got rid of it.

A good detail, from an independent detailer will work wonders.

It's probably just environmental pollutants from sitting the in the lot...it needs a good wash and wax and clay bar job....it happens to every car...I doubt it's overspray if the parts under the white sticker protectant are normal
