Epoxy or Vinylester
Re: Epoxy or Vinylester
Epoxy would be better but... vinyl ester or poly ester would be fine. My viper is done with poly. but I'm using vinyl for my vking. Epoxy is a little more forgiving if you're not familiar with glass work.
I am not a professional body guy and this is just my opinion, I don't think you can go wrong with any of them as long as you prep it correctly and take your time.

Re: Epoxy or Vinylester
Either would be fine. Workmanship is far more important than resin choice. I would use the product you're most comfortable with.
