Hello, I have a bit of a dilemma that I'm hoping some of you more knowledgeable people can help me with.
I have a system with 2 JL Audio 12W1v2-4 subs. About a year ago some douchy high schoolers broke into my car and stole them. I FINALLY got them back, but one of them has a big hole in it now. Like the size of a dime. So I plan to recone it, but since these are the discontinued silver ones (and I'd really like them to match) I'm having a hard time figuring out how to go about it since I've not been able to locate a replacement cone that is silver. So here's my questions:
1. Does anyone know where I might find a silver replacement cone? Or, a place that makes custom replacement cones that is currently accepting orders? Fixmyspeaker.com is not accepting new orders, I don't know of any other places
2. Would it be feasible to buy a black replacement cone and paint it silver?
3. What type of paint would I need to paint it with?
4. Can I somehow remove the old dustcap and reuse it?
5. Do you recommend replacing the spider while the cone is off, or leaving it alone if its not damaged?
6. Is Bob Smith's Cyanoacrylate glue good enough, or is there a different type of glue I should get?
Thanks in advance
