It might be possible for you to replace the ‘upper case / palmrest’ (top section of your laptop with the keyboard and trackpad.)
Check the manual to see, buy a generic computer repair kit with basic tools to open a laptop case, buy a set of screws in bulk from aliexpress. The screw sizes may not have to match exactly, but it depends on the screw and location.
You could try following the manual during the repair, but I found it to be cumbersome and unnecessary. I was able to replace the upper case of my laptop in less than 15 minutes by just looking at it and removing what was in the way.

My problem is mostly with the moving parts and places with screws, all the plastic there is cracked and crumbling.
So it’d be more like replacing the whole “shell”, which would make sense if I knew where one can buy that, LOL.
In the worst case? On ebay, as a “For parts/not working” model with a reasonably intact exterior. Might take a bit of patience.
You may be able to find the replacement parts on amazon or the manufacturer’s website.
Look up replacement parts for your specific model and go from there.
