You can go to a marine store and ask for the soundproofing foam.  It usually
comes in a 3' x 5' piece.  It is about 1 1/2" thick and has a layer of lead
inside.  One side has a peel off adheseve and the oter has aluminum foil
coating.  Expect to pay $50 - $75.  BTW the lead layer is what REALLY makes
it a good soundproofing material.
