Also, the Toyota carbon fiber mirror caps slightly slightly differ from the rest of the TRD carbon fiber parts.

I figured as much I mean the Carbon ones are probably a BMW part (I mean they are BMW Side Mirrors) and the TRD part is totally a Japanese Part so it was highly likely they'd be different. With that being said, I have a Launch Edition Supra that Red so I'll be keeping my Mirror Caps Red and I'm okay with that.

Dry Carbon means actual Carbon. Wet Carbon is overlayed on fiberglass. That's why it's so cheap. It's fake.

Does it require drilling or held on by double sided tape? Are you taking any pre-orders? And Pricing info would be much appreciated
No drilling is required. It comes with 3M double-sided adhesives.
It hasn't been released yet so we haven't decided on a price currently.
Thank you.

That's not necessarily true (the fg part), and even if it were it wouldn't make it fake. Dry carbon refers to the finish on the exterior (gloss with a shiny resin vs a matte textured finish, usually). Whether a part has fiberglass backing on it is a construction detail, you need to look closely at any product to figure that stuff out (though most aftermarket manufacturers tend to be fairly consistent). You can make something like a hood out of a single sheet of carbon, but most will add some FG matte to make it less flimsy and deform less with just the stock latch. The hood with the matte underneath isn't any less "real", it's just heavier, but still probably half the weight of a factory steel hood. More expensive parts will often use more or all carbon for the underlay and reinforcements, but for many parts, the extra cost isn't worth the minimal gain in stiffness and weight loss. And when it comes to purely aesthetic parts, it's not even worth discussing. I would only use the term fake when referring to carbon products that either a) don't use any real carbon at all or b) are just a carbon overlay that is bonded or glued onto the original piece.

I was referring to b)

Any plans to remove the fake door vent like TRD japan did? I would be an interested buyer if so.
