Hotchkis Spring Install

Long story short: I have the Hotchkis TVS Stage 1 Suspension upgrade for my BRZ and I decided to install it the other night. I have everything except for a spring compressor, but I work at a Toyota dealer so I just brought the assemblies into do the spring swap. I tossed them in the back of my truck not thinking anything of it, but when I got home, I noticed that the logos were upside down on the front strut assemblies, and the tighter wound coils are on the bottom. Is it possible that the logos were just put on upside down, or are the entire springs upside down? I spoke to the tech that installed them and he said that they were installed correctly based on which side fit into the top hats.

Any insight?

I'll post pics later when I'm home if it's a big deal

thanks
