Find a local JL Audio dealer, and see how much it would cost to have them send them into JL and get them repaired.

partsexpress.com sells speaker surround (the little foam part is called a surround btw) repair kits fairly inexpensivly. JL (if their not under warranty) proably chargers 30+shipping per speaker to do a little repair like that. They're definately not trash event it their surrounds completely fall off. The surround just controls upper liniar excursion, it will cause a loss of back pressure to the sub if its not repaired but it will not cause the sub to fail.
