Hello j:

No cops, no ticket for you. That's good. She's at fault. So, her damages are her responsibility.

Make a claim on her insurance carrier for your bumper. At 60, I'm surprised you don't have any bodily damage, like whiplash. If you do, you can sue her.

Obviously, you didn't give her YOUR drivers license or YOUR insurance information, because you DON'T have any. If she's was OK with that, than that's that.

The fact that YOU were driving illegally yourself has NO bearing on your damages and your ability to collect.
