I highly recommend just sending your 3DS XL to Nintendo to repair rather than trying to repair it yourself. If you mess up Nintendo won't repair it and you're stuck with that cracked hinge and possibly a broken 3DS.
If you're willing to repair it yourself, here's some tip:
Well as long as you don't need to replace anything on the top screen it is easy, otherwise it's a nightmare. Looks like you won't need to go to that extent fortunately, you just need to take apart the lower half.
Follow this guide just to the point where he removes the motherboard, don't go any further, you only need to take apart the bottom half:
Make sure you pay close attention to each step as you'll need to know how to put it back together.
I found a replacement part for the hinge and inner bottom plate here for $12.34: http://r.ebay.com/fnE32r
Ducktape. No.Glue it with superglue and add some ducktape
