Default Differences in red/blue rear beam? gpa

I see that some of the rear beams that are for sale are blue and some are red, what is the differences?
How do you tell of the rear end is standard, wide or ultrawide?

red is tarmac
green is gravel
black is wide

"i think" its like that, but im sure someone will correct it if not.

but sometimes its so hard to tell, as they get painted so many times during there life sometimes they change colour

unsure what blue is, if anything

ian sibbert, tim finch, or tony ryan will confirm either way.

maybe just a custom color.
How about the arms? mine are green, does that color have any meaning?

yes again i tihnk that has a relation to the width, i.e green standard width, tarmac, wider, and black is extra wide.

but again, one of the boys i've listed will set the story straight.

Infact now i think about it, blue is also one of them, as i remember blue arms, as i think i even had some at one point.
