I need help/advice on this :///, car accident Options

[StarlitxFrosT]

ok. my friend was driving my car at the school parking lot the other day. she backed into a parked car. she told me to take the blame since she didn't have her license on her. (she "does" have her license, it just wasn't on her) she says you can get in big trouble for it, but im not sure.

so i took the blame and damages on the parked car turned out to be 760 $ and damages on mine were 500 $

she was reall desperate at the time of the accident she told me she will pay for it all, except i needed to take the blame.

it's a week later now, and everytime i bring it up, she just says, "if he wants the whole payment at one time , i can't do it" and she wants to buy the paint and just fix my car that way. (am i bein ripped off.?)

she does not want her mom to find out about this.

i am getting kind of nervous on how this problem will be solved. should i just tell the officer that she was the one who hit the car; not me, so i won't get in the middle of this? would she even be in trouble? should i let her fix my car the cheap way, (buying paint) what should i do?! this is stressin me out, and i want my car back the way it was.

b/c I'm not paying for any damages i didn't commit.

thanks.
