yea but the resale value of this thing is gonna be killed if I just seal it, no?

Would not kill it. But better than spending over 75 for a new recone.

Get a tube of "The incredible goop" from autozone/advance auto

Goop the back side of it...play it til it breaks

Then get another recone.

if your buddy is going to pay for it, then let FI fix it.

do you think they will have to recone the entire thing or would they just replace the surround?

he already said he'd pay for a recone, but I also just paid almost 200 bucks with shipping and the recone price, and I really don't want to have a ghetto sealed XXX after I just dropped this kind of money on it

Id make that fool pay for shippign and the recone

well yea that's a given that he is paying for it, but I feel kind of bad and I really shouldn't have let him do it and be responsible for it.

Jesus, just goob it and be done with it.

Like others said, when you are ready to sell it, then recone it. Not that hard, plus gives your friend a chance to come up with the dough.
