YES!

I just spent weeks trying to hunt down this scraping sound, like a metal wire being dragged against a metal surface, usually at highway speeds and over bumps. Anyway, ended up being a spot weld on the inside of the trunk surface, under where your trunk lid liner is. Basically the weld broke and the two surfaces were scratching against each other. Stuffed a tissue between them and it's gone. Not saying it's what you have but worth checking. I had to ask my wife to basically lie down on the seats and stick her head in the trunk while I drove down the street. She pointed to exactly where the noise was coming from. After weeks of being driven mad by not being able to find the cause of the noise, it felt nice to identify it in a span of 10 seconds.
