What makes you suspect they might be ruined? All you said is that a
300lb person sat in it for a short while.

Not a flame, but it sounds to me more that you have a problem with your
sister's friend's weight than any damage to your car. I'm completely
sympathetic, BTW, about strangers climbing into one's new car. Next time
just set the alarm (assuming it has one). If the alarm sounds as soon as
she opens the door, I bet she runs the 100m in Olympic time.
