every time the cone hit it would rub against some metal **** in my trunk, which eventually made it crack

Watch out.. YOu have to use a special epoxy type superglue if the cone of your sub is polypropylene. The other glue wont stick to it. Epoxy won't stick to it. I had to use like a $5 tube of special ass glue I had to go everywhere to find, and then for good measure used carefuly applied hot glue on top of that.

POST PICS OF THE DAMAGE.

I think it couldve easily been avoided by a few things:

1. changing box size/orientation where as metal things in the trunk would not have been within excursion range.

2. Securing box down.

3. Using some sort of grill.

4. not doing burnout with loose sub box.

However, since your cone is plastic, just put some epoxy on it, a little bit, enough to cover a 1/4" around the hole. and no more than an 1/8th thick. Then dont worry about it.
