subwoofer cone mushed around the edge of the surround about 1/3 of an inch?

its like it got pushed on and bent the cone all around the edge. at first glance its not really noticable but if i gently push on the dust cap it will be visible that its bent inwards towards the spider a little bit all around the edge of the subwoofer.

should I replace it? or will it be fine? it doesnt seem to affect the bass quality or volume that I can tell.

its not very high wattage subwoofer. so 20 watts or less most likely.

its got speaker outputs for left and right built into the sub box. so its self powered.

 

Is there anything I can do to maybe stiffen the cone where it got bent? anything i can apply to the surface maybe? a thin layer of epoxy or something?? any kind of cone treatment substance or something?

or should I just chuck it and get a new one? the spider and surround are pretty tough and stiff. you would end up punching in the dust cap before it would bottom out! 

How long should I play audio to loosen the spider and surround and will it improve the bass response and make it more efficient?
