It's more form over function 90% of the time. If Toyota had actually made a print that was supposed to look like cf but wasn't (let me point you towards the carbon look package on the e92 M3) I would be bummed. This is t supposed to be so close to real that you question the authenticity of the material.
Actually I watching some video clip on the FRS and one the Toyota Engineers was actually explaining where that design/look came from. It's not supposed to be CF or represent fake CF, but it their is actually some meaning behind those bat looking symbols.
