Default 100nl Interesting spot vs solid regular

Ok villain is 20/17, he's a solid regular (no AF stat for some reason) who I have a fair bit of history with. I 3bet him 3 times in about 5 orbits when he was BTN vs me in bb. I had monsters the first 2 then went for it still with 99 and he 4bet me (debatable but I had my reasons). I folded but then got TT 1 orbit later and 3bet him again to which he folded. I've also been very aggro and raising a ton from LP, I've got every reason to think the table sees me as a maniac. This guy may realise I'm not an idiot, but he may not.

1st question, against this type of opponent where we have 3bet him a ton and he finally plays back, he would (supposedly) think we would tighten our 3betting range (since we got 4bet last time), so should I loosen up my 3betting in the near future just to pwn him on a higher level?

2nd, this hand. I figure the call pf is fine cos of our image and that he prob thinks I'm a maniac. Donk bet on the flop good? I think it's much better than c/r given the image. But when he raises, should we always 3bet? Is my raise size ok?

EDIT: I made it $62 to go but deleted it from the hh for some reason, lol.
