Blown Type-R

[lspin01l 10+ year member]

Hey,

My friend told me that he blew his Type-R. I only glanced at it, and it looked pretty bad. The surround was off on most of it, and he has a ducktaped hole from where he was drilling it in, and he knocked a hole in the cone. How hard, or is it possible, to make this like new again?

Thanks

recone it, send it to alpine and they'll have it recones. DOn't know how much they'll charge you though, Maybe about 50 bucks.

Alright.... I doubt it has a warranty on it, knowing my friend. Is it possible for me to get the stuff to recone it, and do it myself?

If there is a recone kit....where can I get it? Ive looked around, but I dont know where to find it. My local shop will do it for me for free....but I need to find the kit.

Thanks

Call up alpine then. I bet you could order 1 from them, they just wont do it for you.
