I have removed all the rigid foam from inside the rear trunk lid trailing edge rib, in order to repair rust. I would like to replace the foam since it adds rigidity and connects the rib (which hosts the trunk latch mount) to the outer skin. Any recommendations on materials and process?

Don't put it back. The foam trapped moisture, and that caused the rust out issues in those areas.
