To start with I supect you damaged the LCD in the bang. This will require a new lid assembly.
But what has me scratching my head here is you claim you can't get an external monitor to work but can get access to the system from a second Mac remotely. So, the question is are you sure you have connected the external monitor correctly? If you haven't and you can get it to work then all you need is the lid assembly. But if not that would imply your logic board got damaged in the area where the displays LVDS cable connects with the Thuderbolt connector is located as well.
