Trunk Rattle

I've gotta figure out wth is wrong with my Jeep's trunk, my lil sis decided it would be fun to shut the keys where it meets the bumper and since then (last weekend) my car's trunk rattles when I hit bumps.

Caulk all the edges of the trunk lid bracing cavities. I suggest windsheild glue but just basic caulk will work too

Where exactly do I put the caulk? And what will this do for me? Do i Do this before I put the foam in>?

From the pictures it looks like he put in the foam then caulked around the edges where the foam rose up.

I caulked first but didnt give it sufficent time to dry and the foam leaked out in a few spots.

might sound getto to those that have bad trunk raddles but i used several layers of duct tape right on that rubber seal that meats the trunk lid when its closed. cutted down on a ton of trunk rattles. and now since the trunk rattles are gone all i hear now is my bumber squeeking
