Maintenance help with struts

I just purchased a 2008 (What I believe to be touring model) all checks out. Tires, Fog lights, wheels, spoiler, springs with blue paint and drives alot tighter than my old 08 Prius (totalled, rest in peace) However, the struts have pink and white stripe. I am guessing these were at one point red and pink and both faded. I see someone else mentioned they had an 04 with pink and white but as you state the 04 was red and white. My guess is the red faded to pink and the pink to white after 6 years of the vehicle being driven. Any thoughts?

Also note that there is more road noise with the touring model. Thinking this to be the high performance tires it has on it.

Thanks,
Russ
