Miata with checkered stripe?

[Master__Shake_]

I ran into someone online, and they had a Mazda Miata with a checkered stripe on the car - much like the checkered flag for a race. It was a thin stripe, offset to the left side of the car - like the stripe for the ACR Viper. When asked, they said it was an easter egg then they left the lobby. All I saw is that it was one of the 90s models.

I bought several models of the Miata, and I only found two capable of having a stripe when repainted but neither have a checkered stripe with any paint I had available. Does anyone know anything about this? Is it possible there is a special paint chip that allows checkered stripes, or was this person just running a livery hack?

There is a Miata that can get a checkered stripe when painted, but I forget which model.

A thread was made to keep a record of all the models and their various stripe effects but I've forgotten what it was called.

Thank you. Right away I found the model I was looking for, so I'll pick it up.
