Can anyone recommend a good body shop in the Kettering / North Northants or nearby for work on my Daytona Grey A5? One that uses good quality OEM Audi spec paint. I’m keener on quality than cost within reason, so happy to consider places a bit further if necessary.

The front bumper, bonnet, wings and back bumper have been done before about 5 years ago but the paint match is noticeable (to me). The front now has quite a few stone chips - even though I keep a good distance from cars in front - which suggests that soft or poor paint was used last time - it marrs quite easily. I also have a chip and ding in the drivers door on the upper crease line - prom a stone flung up from a passing coach.

Anyway, someone has now managed to nudge my rear bumper and drive off. No real damage, just cracked paint from the bumper flexing, so I’m thinking maybe this is a perfect excuse to get all these bits done.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Possibly a bit far but you might want to consider REO Motors, Beaumont Street, Oadby, Leicester LE2 4DB.

Seen a lot of their work, used to recommend them to some of my own customers & they've had some interesting cars in over the years.
