If this plane has Hartzell props it has aluminum spinners but they are not the pointy ones. The pointy ones come on the new wide cord Hartzell props on the 690/695 series.

Hi Adam,
On the 680T/V/W/681, the spinners are painted fiberglass, whereas I believe they are aluminum on the 690 and up. I don't know if the backing plates and spinners from a 690 will fit over your prop hubs and blade roots. My first guess is that they would, but you'd probably have to do a full engineering study and get the FSDO to approve it on a 337 form. Also, you'd be changing the airflow patterns over the nacelle and into the inlet, and the rotating mass of the prop/spinner combination. Whether that would make any real-world difference is anyone's guess.
Good luck on the pre-buy! As long as all of the maintenance is up-to-date and the SBs and ADs are complied with, I think it will turn out to be a smooth inspection with few, if any, surprises.
Regards,
Stan
