First post here and wish it was for a better reason, but I'm looking for a good body shop (preferably near Boston) for my 2014 Audi Q5 TDI as someone hit it in a parking lot the other day and of course didn't leave a note. It's not significant damage, but it's not just a swipe or bump either. I've got a broken tail light, a dent and some scratches, so would like to make sure the paint work (if needed) matches the real color. I see the following options right now:

1. Audi authorized collision repair in Mass (Prime is closest to me):

Prime Collision Center 155 Rivermoor St
West Roxbury, MA 02132 (617) 469-3000

Ira Collision Center 161 Andover Street
Danvers, MA 01923 (978) 605-2110

2. Go to a dealer: Audi Brookline uses an off-site collision repair it seems. Not sure about Audi Burlington, but that also might be convenient. Would be interested in folks' opinions on this if anyone has used it.

3. Independent shop that's not authorized by Audi. Not sure about the options here and the advantages (maybe price?) vs. the disadvantages (?).

Thanks for all the help and advice in advance.

I used Bay State Collision in Braintree when my Q7 was damaged in the parking lot in September. They did a fine job. They also handle all of the work for Audi Norwell. Good luck!
