Contact Tesla. They have a list of approved Tesla repair facilities. Of course you can go anywhere you feel comfortable, but my first choice would be to check with the Tesla authorized place first.

Sorry you got hit. Hurts with a new car. Do you know what material that trunk is made of. If aluminum you will want to go to a place set up to handle aluminum.

It may be that they will just want to replace that trunk with a new one instead of repairing the dent.
