Laptops are not made to sustain a 3 to 5 foot drop onto a hard surface. You are lucky it still works at all. Is the hinge still OK? Does it work smoothly or bind up? I frankly would need to see a picture to tell you exactly which parts you may need but all the metal and plastic parts are available and can be replaced.
The hinges are here, but there are dozens more like this set on eBay for sale:
Here is the frame around the screen i.e. bezel:
This part would be available in your specific color.

This repair is way easier than a motherboard replacement and would be doable by anyone with modest screwdriver skills. HP would charge you an arm and a leg....a couple hundred dollars at least if they would even do it. Same with Geek Squad. Post back if you need any more help.
