Working on some mounting brackets. These are going to hold actual weight so they need to be sturdy.

Right now Im doing 60% infill with 4 walls. Is that overkill or should I go higher?

You'll want to use PETG with at least 0.2mm layer height. Works way better than PLA for car parts.

I always do a temp tower first. Makes a huge difference in layer adhesion.
