Default 98 GS rear sub fabric flappy/vibrating

I've recently changed over to a Kicker C10 and ZX300 amp, now when I crank it higher than 1/3, the rear rattles, I then go to the back and check out what was vibrating, I noticed the cloth on the sub grill was loose and vibrating which was the most likely cause of the rattle. (the fabric is loose near the center of the area, kinda like a bubble)

Is there a simple way to fix it? Or is the only option to take out the rear deck and spray adhesive from below to stick the fabric back on?

from the sound of it you might have to respray the grill. the grill itself can pop off. also run the speaker w/ the grill off and see how much excursion the sub has. the sub might be slapping against the bottom of the grill.

I just went out to my car to see, I can push down on the grill by about 1/2inch til it touch the sub.

But I'm unable to pop the grill off, does it just pop out from the top? I tried using fingers, a flathead(which made 2 dentures on the edge of the rear deck by the grill....)

Where to pop (any specific points?) and what to use (to pop the grill)? Then after I get behind the grill, I just spray fabric adhesive from the back to the front of the grill? or do I have to pull the whole fabric off?
