Are there commercial versions of this thing?
Got a chip in the powdercoat from the sidepull brake and started thinking it needed something like this:

Or just don't let your bars turn enough to let the brake hit the downtube.

I use clear, self-adhesive bumpers. Stick well, let the color show through, cheap, effective. Vast array of shapes and sizes.

Some brake adjusters have a rubber bumper to prevent frame dings:

BF member jamesdak turned me on to these. They come two to a pack:
