Hi, I'm looking to buy some new springs for my SWB T32. I have 2 grey stripes and 1 green stripes on the front, and what looks like 4 grey paint stripes on the rear.(assuming these are factory fitted). I have found a few sets on fleabag which have 3 grey stripes and 1 green on front, and 2 or 3 grey stripes on the rear.
I want to be the same height (factory height) and I want to be load rated for a T32. Can anyone tell me what the colours mean please 🙏

The colours are an indication of the load and height of the spring. Realistically you're best buying those from a dealer/TPS.
