A quick solution for covering the pip pin holes is to use discs of self
adhesive white pvc sheet. They look neat and unobtrusive. I used them
for the wing drag pin and flap rod inspection holes as well. They cope
well with the surface curvature, especially at the wing root. It does
mean that you need a new set every time the pins are removed. This is
only a significant problem if you rig and derig for each flight.
