Standalone car hire excess for Australian resident

Hello!

I'm meeting my Australian friend in Italy next week and we're looking at hiring a car with my friend doing the driving not me. We wanted to buy standalone car hire excess cover but all of the companies seem UK based and I wasn't sure how she would stand as it will all be in her name. She'd never heard of standalone car hire excess before so maybe it isn't a thing in Australia? we're prepared to pay the excess cover with the car hire company if we need to but ideally it would be great to get the cheaper option!
Any suggestions on how to proceed?

thanks!
