Some audio shops have a surround repair kit depending on the type of surround you have you may find a fix.

After accidently stabbing a screwdriver through the surround on my Kicker Comps(DOH), I just used a little superglue and fixed it. It still sounds ok, It wasn't a very big rip.

I put a screwdriver though one of my brand new fosgate hx2's. Even though these have a rubber surround, i used some black electrical tape. i know its pathetic but its behind my truck seat so i don't care. As for the sound, its perfect.

Rubber cement might do the trick too
