Greg, I have minimize something like that by placing the speaker face down and misting water on the cone a little at a time from the back. Once the cone is saturated it is more pliant and you may be able to gently coax it back in shape. Just something I did out of desperation and it worked. Hard to tell from the picture but it appears your surround is well attached?
