Change that revolve in properties to have only 180 degrees, then copy, rotate and adjust to the other piece, create different material for this two pieces....

Yes by doing what you said  But could I ask another question?

I try to assign a color to a sketchup imported object

And I found this thread  that discusses   the same problem

http://www.revitcity.com/forums.php?action=viewthread&thread_id=13802&start=0

I added new render materials   in "both  materials"   and "object styles" windows to the object but it  remains  gray when rendered.

"I added new render materials   in "both  materials"   and "object styles" windows to the object but it  remains  gray when rendered." Although we have explained this topic thousand times, here we go again. When you import your objects from SU or ACAD, you can't create their materials in Revit. You have to create layers (or al least paint each component, if you don't have enough time to create layers), in ACAD or SU so you can then apply materials in Revit to each layers or colors that you previously created in either of the two  programs. I think the images could be useful for you to understand this.....
