Thumbs down OEM spring markings

I bought some 05 OEM springs on Ebay to replace the eibachs that are on the car. They were shipped to all in one box. I see no part numbers on the springs and am having a hard time figureing out which is the front and which is the rear. THey have paint markigs on them two set one has blue, yellow and pink and the others have blue ornage and pink. Can anyone tell me which is front and which is rear. I have searched for pics and the local dealer soesn't have and s2k's on the lot. Thanks. Oh and one set is thicker but both have the same number of coils.

OK here you go

FRONT from the top
Blue YELLOW Pink

REAR from the top
Blue ORANGE Pink

No difference from side to side

There should be a difference in length as well, I can't tell as mine are still on the OEM shock

However, Mikey has answered my question about OEM suspension springs!! Old thread, but I thought I would let it be known that I benefited from this.

Thanks
