Of course they share parts, they could be stupid not too. Like someone else said all car manufacturers get most of their parts from suppliers. Have you ever seen parking sensors? Do you notice anything, they all look alike. U can purchase a Cadillac or a Lexus the sensor is made by the same company.

Toyota and Lexus are owned by the same company. Everyone with half a brain knows that. Lexus is simply a luxury line of cars. What was your question exactly?

Nearly every car made has parts that are made by someone else. Most vehicle air conditioner systems are made by other businesses.

Can't say that much about all parts. I think Toyota makes own engines for the most part, and most likely the seats and other interior parts. Radios and different other parts come from subcontractors of different kinds.

All auto manufacturers purchase lots of parts and things from suppliers. In San Antonio the Toyota company is finishing a truck assembly plant and many of the related jobs are with suppliers.

Pretty normal in the business.

Its the same company so why could they waste extra money on dies, molds and printing just to print labels on parts that usually only mechanics see?

Called good business practices to keep costs down for their customers.

They aren't just made by the same company, they're the same car. They just badge their luxury line as Lexus in some countries but not in Japan for some reason .

It can be the same parts, but there's a tremendous difference between a Camry and a Lexus. I have owned both have you?
