What infill for parts that need to be strong?

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.

Make sure you're doing 4 walls minimum. Infill honestly doesnt matter as much as wall thickness.
