As long as you've mastered settings and supports etc, anything can be made if you have the time. I'm a bit weary if letting it print overnight just cause of fire risk and also if a fail happens you'll have a 5hr bird nest when you wake up!
I printed an ECU box in carbon petg and the print nozzle got bigger, forgot to swap out with a hard duty one. Carbon and night glow filament does erode the nozzle so if you start with a 0.4mm it'll be bored out larger by the friction. I print all my stuff with a 0.6 nozzle unless neatness is required .
I go to 0.4 or less but it takes so much longer.. Don't be afraid to trial different wall thickness and infill, also overlap% , I run at 20% instead of the usual 5% as it locks filament better.
Going back a couple years , Making For Motorsport on YT made an intake for his mini club race car in carbon ASA, it's still going strong and shows the full design and build etc.
Next you'll buy a 3d scanner and replicate anything you want !!
