Fixing broken hinge cover

[jonimayzie]

The plastic hinge cover has broken off my laptop - but the hinge still works fine.  Is this something that can be fixed - or am I stuck with exposed hinges?  Should I just replace the computer?

I have the  same issue. Left hinge popped out when closing laptop. This is ridiculous and many have this complaint. Repair shops want too much money to repair this defect. It is a defect. I never used it on the tablet mode. My laptop is maybe 2 years old. Good bye HP.
