Sounds like you've got live type in there somewhere. Make a copy of your square-with-stuff-in-it and outline the type. This will make distorting easier. But I reckon Photoshop is probably a better tool for this kind of job. Transform/Distort on a layer will probably get you where you want to go to. Maybe a bit of Mesh too. I often use Photoshop for doing mock-ups of packaging and that sort of thing. Once you've got your vanishing points and stuff worked out right it's much quicker than Illy.
