Hi Andrew,
I'm not sure that there is a good or easy way to fix the vinyl wrapped subwoofer. Maybe a local cabinet shop would have some ideas?

Depending on how bad it is you might be able to touch it up with a black Sharpie.

You may want to try black tinted car wax. Try it on a small area first in case it doesn't work then you will only have to remove a small amount of wax. Citrus Orange cleaner should take the wax off if it doesn't work.

Try a Volvo dealership if the wax doesn't work. They have die that Volvo users have to use on the black plastic trim. It fades bad in the sun. The dye is a permanent solution and you should be able to put a light coat on the entire surface to keep a uniform appearance. The Sharpie would just give you darker lines where the scuffs are.
