Dimple.
Prime.

I am seriously considering doing something like this on my wing ribs though. The reason being is because of all the flutes.

I am thinking I may want to do the wing ribs in this order:

1. Get them finished: fluted, drilled, and dimpled
2. Clean with a simple cleaner like Bon Ami and gentle scrubbing with scotchbrite to get rid of major oil and grime
3. Dip them in alumaprep to do the surface etching
4. Dip in alodine
5. Prime with AKZO.
