new spring question

hi all,
got my new rear spring today from bpnw and am wondering if it matters what way it goes in. The manual says the clips are stamped front but they are not and neither are the clips on the original spring i took out. Manual also says about facing the ground edge of the main leaf towards the rear; i'm not sure what that means; both edges look rounded. The spring looks the same on both ends but i'm not sure how to tell what way should face the front. thanks...
