Default dick's in somerville is always well reviewed

they did my S4 bumper and did a great job. Ran around $1k, IIRC.

Default After you get the work done, will you change your SN to SmoothRob or GlossyRob?

Default Advanced Auto in Worcester just did my car. Came out awesome, worth the trip

to have them do it, it's only about 40 minutes from Boston. My car was in the Audiworld section at Waterfest, so if you were there you say the car a couple days out of paint and they did a bomb job on it. If interested I'll hook you up with contact info.

Default Re: best body/paint shop around boston?

Bay State Collision Center in Braintree specializes in Audi and Porsche. Ray and Kevin - both GREAT guys.

Default odd that they're an Audi specialist body shop and are yet never mentioned here...

Default I actually had my car at Dick's before and now am getting something sprayed at Mike's. I'll say that

from my dealings so far Mike is much more accessible than Frank at Dick's.

Default Had the front cap replaced and hood repainted on the Z3 2 mos ago at Anchor...highly recommend them.

I had some minor spray work done on the Odyssey just last week at Dewire Bros on Comm Ave in Auburndale. Looks good...no complaints.
