White springs question

My car is a 08 M3, I was looking at my suspension the other day and noticed it has white springs, are these OEM? Car feels pretty stock as far as suspension goes, it has EDC.

The springs in my '10 were black so unless someone with an 08 says otherwise they are aftermarket. Not sure who uses white though.

TC Kline uses white springs. Depending on which kit (SA or DA) TC Kline uses either white or yellow custom-valved Koni dampers.

Well the struts/shocks are stock. I had tc klines coils on my e46 and yes they were white. What's weird is car sits at normal height.
