pink dots on strut tops

hello,

i've been having some big time clunking specifically on my pass side dspec strut. when i went to tighten the strut nut the other night i noticed that the pink dots on my top hats are oriented in oppisite directions. The driver's side dot faces the front while the passenger side dot faces the rear? Could my pass side top hat be installed backwards and is resulting in the clunking and inability of the nut to stay tight?

I saw these while installing my Swift springs and forgot the orientation...I just faced them all toward the rear....shady.
