I've used "Rhino Lining"
Protective Coatings, Epoxy Flooring, Seamless Flooring | Rhino Linings
Not cheap...a bit of rooting about...but looks good and works well.
Superformance ( and others) have also used what is basically "Wet suit rubber" glued under the guard.
I recon that would work well also.
Cheers,

i went wetsuit material glued on with sikaflex under the main area of the guard that stones will go. I then coated the entire underside with primer, then coated with a spray on body deadener that used a gun that screws onto the bottle (shultz gun?). Then painted over with gloss Por 15 black. There are a few different body deadeners/stone guards, not all are paintable though. The one i used was water based.
The finish is super hard from the pro 15 and the body deadener and foam provide some insulation. Looks really nice and fairly inexpensive. I think the gun was only about $20 from memory.

CLARK Rubber have an adhesive rubber product that is about 8mm thick. Comes in sheets and is quite expensive as it has sound deadening qualities as well.
Worth a look..

I used brush on deadener from Super Cheap Auto, It came in a 4 litre tin, think it was about $50 from memory. To do all 4 under guards I used about 1/2 the tin, single coat, this stuff is like a tar paste and it went on about 3mm thick. I used $0.50c brushes from Bunnings so I didn't have to bother cleaning them (wash-up is turps).
Dry finish is matte and rough.

Dimis,
I have used some of this over the Kirkham deadener as these areas are target spots for stones being thrown out of the tread.
