try a vacuum at a lower speed?

it may be quite a stupid idea.. not sure if it will negatively affect the tweeter but it should work

Scotch tape helps, take a small strip put it on the tweater and pull it of, do it a couple of times and it will be back to normal.

yeah, something sticky... wrap it on the tip of your finger and just slowly bring it back to form.

my dog put his nose on my sub once and it dented and i thought he ruined it... nope, a lil duct tape and it was back

Yeah, though I feel like a tweater would be a tad more sensitive...

I mean, this is a precision device here. My opinion would be that it's completely f*cked. personally, I'd replace it.
