what would you do, small accident

So i park in a underground parking lot at my apartment, the lady that parks next to me(in a cavalier) cant drive, she is always half in her spot and not straight and never watched where she is going. My girlfriend used to park her Toyota Matrix there and got a few door dings from it.

So then i buy the truck and we swap parking spots as hers was easier to get a full size into. On the second day the lady in the cavalier hit my truck in the passenger rocker panel, i was in the middle of my spot at the time and have pictures of the damage to both veh and where i was parked in the spot. There is very little damage to the truck mostly just scraped paint on the rocker, the dent popped right out in less than 2 min and didnt even crack any paint coming out. The cavalier has at least $1000 in damage, her front fender is totaled and she took out her front headlights/corner lights and scrapped down past the fender into the door. It literally looks like she tried to drive under my truck at a 45 degree angle at over 10mph.

Im intending to strip all the paint on the bottom 2' of my truck and rock guard it as i intened to wheel the truck on the weekends so the damage does not effect me at all. But considering how much of a cow she is i was going to make a claim anyways just to get her insurance rates jacked up. I have already contacted police and insurance just have not moved forward with the claim yet. What would you guys do? oh and BTW she is denying it was her even though the insurance agency got a positive match on the paint(which is uncommon for a chevy truck, was repainted 2 years ago with sky metallic irock paint)
