The car is insured, simply that. If my friend Al took my car and hit anything with it. I know my insurance would have me on the hook to pay the bill, unless I reported it stolen.

I'd take the driver to small claims court. I had a car wash damage the bumper to my eclipse and I got a check for an OEM style bumper and paint/labor. They are responsible to bring it back to pre-accident condition.

Your insurance company should give you your deductible back once they collect from the other party.
