Black check bonnet stripes with silver edge?

Hi
I saw a red mini yesterday and the bonnet stripes were black checks and had silver edging. You could also see red checks and as I was driving in the opposite direction I wondered if they are A) BMW or B) Aftermarket and C) Can you get them in Black and electric Blue??? Are they black checks on a clear strip to show the bonnet colour underneath or are there various colour coded options to match to your car?
Cheers Guys

They would more than likely have been, black checks onto the red paintwork, with the red showing through the squares, with a silver pinline down either side.

Like the ones below...
