The very first just had a slight change in the color of the material. That was difficult to see other than the very first parts that were light grey. Now the company has adopted the color code. That makes it much easier.
That is very true as I have 3 arms on the car that don't have the color dots but yet 2 are the same thickness and color but the 3rd is darker and thicker. So that's when after reading a comment here that I realized I've been punishing myself all this time trying to get the car to stick and all the time working against myself without knowing.
