Just for a laugh - I did an experiment to see what the space invader stuff would do to rigidity.
I put some into an empty 2 litre drink bottle and put the lid on.
It does increase rigidity, and makes the bottle more "solid", but I don't think it would replace adequate metal bracing.
Also the stuff expands A LOT and is very messy. I didn't put it in the car in the end, because I didn't want big blobs of foam invading my interior. I also did'nt want it to have a sponge effect if water got into it.
Also the stuff hardens with water/vapour, so it may take a while to solidify if you are filling large volumes.

My advice if you are considering it, is it's cheap to try it outside your car.
