Body parts and trim?

Body parts and trim?
Hey there everyone and happy holidays!
I just bought a 94 850 turbo and I was wondering where i might look for body parts either the real thing or at least a diagram so I can tell you which part I am talking about. Unfortunately this car did not come with the owners manual and I am not having any luck looking on the net for the parts diagrams.
I am looking for the rocker? panel. Well any way the piece that is under the door but looks more like trim than an actual steel part.
ANY WAY shes a signal red 4 door sedan turbo...oversized snapping 290hp to the wheels. She is in need of some tlc and I am the guy to do that I would love some guidance and information for the gurus here.

If you have the turbo, it's only rated 222 hp. And that would be at the crank. To the wheels is even less.
I would say maybe check a junkyard. But both of mine got cracked (one I have no clue on and the other a piece of ice smashed it) Luckily, the damage isn't completely serious and I am thinking about just epoxying them. Lucky for me, the pieces fit together perfectly.

Wow lucky you indeed. A piece of ice put a hole in mine and it looks just plain old bad. Junk yard huh...okay will do and thanks for the tech information but the dyno says differntly.
You think a 940 piece would do the trick?
Also any idea where I can find a parts list with pictures and numbers?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Body parts and trim?
As for the parts in the car I am not sure. I bought the car recently and took it to a friend to put on the dyno. It showed 290 hp at the wheels. The car was well maintained by the previous owner, I am the 2nd. All the work was done at a local Volvo specialty shop here in Denver CO.
I have all the service records as well. Ill go through them to doubble check on the engine replacement that was done to it and see what it holds there. Also the car is from Europe...meaning made for across the pond headed to Sweden. I found the original dealer frame in the car. Case in point the previous owner took the car to brakes plus and they to thought it was the standard 850 and when they turned the rotors they destroyed them...I found them in the trunk... boy yeah they were pretty bad. Anyway it looks like it was a 1500 dollar screw up on the brake guys, which they replaced. I am reallyu bumming on this whole thing honestly because I would love to have the owners manual (which would obviously be in a differnt language) to validate this even further. I also went to the parts master locally to doubble check the vin...it wasnt made for the Canuks or us Yanks... What tipped me off to it was when I ran the VIn on the net there is a part of the vin that doesnt match. However I have a clean title ect. SO anyway this car was on its way to the Germans and I am not sure how the previous owner got it but I am following up on that. But yeah I had the parts master run the vin and clear up the mystery to that point.
I am in Colorado.

Damn Tech your white mule looks pretty darn nice! I can only hope to achive such a fine looking auto when I am done...in red of course! By the way congrats on the kidos too. I totaly understand about the head lamps.
Anyway as you can see I am down to metal in some place there on the rear door any suggestions? I am fairly surprised to see that it looks so chrome! Any reason for this or is it typical of the part location?
I am going to wok on the tip next and see how that comes out, i'll let you know.
So any interior recomendations such as modifications? I was thinking about heating the rear seats.
