Default What kind of Carbon fiber

I am completely redoing my bike while i have the down time and im planning on doing my entire lower and tail in CF and just wondering what you think i should use

I plan on carbon fiber wrapping each piece but wondering if i should use CF fabric and a resin over coat or should i stick with CF vynil wrap. they both will give me the look that i want, mainly for looks but with the vynil, i can stretch it into corners to give it a good clean look but the fabric will be a bit more authentic... also a bit mroe expensive and i have to cut it in and out here and there

If you are going for the look, use the vinyl. Using actual cf will be more expensive, add more weight to the bike, and has a greater chance coming out crappy looking. CF can be a pain to work with, and a wrinkle totally ruins the look.
