06 MCS springs and struts

I would like to tap into the wealth of knowledge on NAM, and submit the following possibility:

I have a 05 MC, Sport suspension.

A good friend of mine just bought an 06 JCW, and had the JCW suspension installed by the dealer. He gave me his original MCS springs/struts.

I have searched and checked NAM and MINI2, but it seems the PN's have changed in 06, so I'm not finding much.

Front struts - 31 31 6 764 920
Rear struts - 33 52 6 768 158
Front springs have 2 gray stripes
Rear springs have 1 gray 1 yellow

Does anyone have a current tech CD that could tell me any more about these PN's. I have a sunroof, so I'm probably on the heavy side of MC's, but I'd hate to put these springs in and have the thing sit even higher. Hey, the price was right.

Any thoughts? If I make the swap, I'd go with a 19MM rear sway bar. I know this subject has been thrashed before, but the new PN's are throwing me, and I can't figure out the spring color coding.

Thanks for any advice or warnings you might be able to offer.
