Default Eibach Springs, Top and Bottom

Im installing the Eibach prokit myself and I'm pretty sure the close coiled section is the top and the bottom is the smaller diameter end like it is sitting in the picture. Any one have experience with these springs?

It doesnt say on the instructions which side is up or down, I just got done with the front springs and I put them with the close coils at the top. seems to be fine and the Eibach logo's are right side up.

I didn't take any pictures during the install, unfortunately, I can take one of the stance now though. The odd thing is the rear springs dont need to be compressed, they just hang about 3 inches til you drop the car back down, while the fronts need to be compressed to be put in. They ride nice, the only thing is it's a little bouncy in the rear due to OEM shocks, but it's not unbearable til i get more money for new shocks.

Sorry for the crappy new pictures, from my phone and it was starting to get dark. There is about a 2 finger gap all round.
