Luckily she admitted fault to the officer that responded and her insurance accepted responsibility. I still expect the entire process to be a PITA.

Ouch! That looks almost identical to the damage I received, in a very similar situation... A guy decided to do a U-turn without looking to his left, in the middle lane, and totally side swipes me with the exact same damage you have. 100% his fault. It was a $5k bill.
My only "2 cents"... Make sure you get it done by someone you trust completely. Screw the insurance companies and do whatever it takes to ensure you get a good painter, because you don't want to have to repaint the whole car later on, like me
