why is this piece different colors?
I was looking at a carrera gt at the dealership recently and I noticed that this piece (wheel nut?) was different colors. Red on the left, blue on the right. Why is that?

colour coding prevents the threading from being put on the wrong side, as these are centerlock, wrong side = wheels coming off
happens sometimes at le mans. very funny, as the entire team looks at the corresponding wheel man.
