Get that dent puller thing that they advertise on tv.

 

[Baked]

Use tape.

 

[jamerdean]

tape didn't work
dent puller thing little too powerful

other ideas?

 

[Baked]

Use stronger tape. If that doesn't help, use vacuum tube attachment.

 

[jamerdean]

tried the vacuum attachment also. still didn't work. would hot glue and thread work?

 

[jamerdean]

anyone else can help?

Like the tape used on rollers to package boxes. Rip it off dont peel but of course be careful. Or with vaccuum attachment use your thumb and index finger to hold part of cone not sunken in and slide the attachment from left to right across center while pulling back slightly.

Im terms of performance, this dent will not affect the sound of your sub. It is a dustcover for the voice coil.

That being said, I bothers ne to no end seeing the dust cover smushed like that.

Duct tape is one option or you could actully peel the dust cap off push it out and re glue it on.
