Well OK-- I wasn't clear enough. It is the 8 bolts per side(4 an-3 and 4 an-6) and it is the metal to metal of the wing attach fittings. I just wanted to make sure I don't have a silly mistake for FAA inspection next week. I'm certain that the nut should have a washer at least to keep from gauging the attach strap. But I'm not sure if it should have a washer under the bolt head to spread the bolt head pressure out on the wing attach strap.

Sent my paper work for review on Saturday and got it back in the mail today all reviewed and with only 3 small comments to change. I hope the plane goes that well.
