You'll need to replace the complete lid assembly. Here's the IFIXIT guide you'll need to follow: MacBook Air 13" Mid 2011 Display Assembly Replacement and here is the needed part: MacBook Air 13" (Late 2010/Mid 2011) Display Assembly - Apple P/N 661-5732.

You may want to look on eBay you might find a used one there which would be the cheapest. Just be careful! make sure you can return it and get your money back if it has any problems.

Why not just replace the LCD?

While it could be done you end up marring things up and often chip the cover glass. I've also found the diffuser sheets can get messed up too. The Air's and Retina systems are hard to replace the LCD panels alone.
