What about any decent make spring from Autodoc that says it’s for a Sport E class , provided you match the description with the front and back they should be fine ?<br />
I was lucky that I had original colours on my Avantgarde so a careful read on Autodoc allowed me to match Sachs springs .<br />
I would bet that different colour dots on a spring for the Sport model would have almost no difference between them , especially when you car suspension (parts of it ) are from 2007

I used autodoc . I matched the shocks part number to my chassis , I then went onto eBay ,searched for the same part number , spotted a few legs using the same shock and I got my paint markings via this process. I did use a bit of nouse as well calling the mb parts dept saying I think my car has the wrong springs fitted can he double check my paint markings , I gave him some balloney colours and he said , oh no you should have 2 yellow 1 green.<br />

Same set up was used on the w219 and parts for those went to 2010 I think <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤔" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f914.png" title="Thinking face :thinking:" data-shortname=":thinking:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" />. Also worth a search .</div>
