I finished the assembly of the spar pins. Afterwards I removed the pin stoppers and springs and used a Scotch Brite pad to prep the pin stopper tubes and the ends of the spar pins for primer. I masked off the portion of the spar pins that will inserted into the spar bushings. I them primed the stopper tubes and the ends of the spar pins. I think I will paint this portion of the pins and tubes with black Hammer Tone paint to match the instrument panel.

Interior Paint and Spar Pins
This evening I repainted the inside surface of the air vents. I had originally painted them grey, but with the interior finishes grey does not work. I repainted them with the new beige color I have selected to go with the upholstery and vinyl trim. I think they turned out great.
