I think $260 is low for a genuine Mazda dealer minor service! But then the dealer will always charge a premium. As for the oil, someone on here should be able to tell you what the genuine oil is that they use. It's a commercial brand that they opt to use.

Welcome and grats
Hey guys, I noticed that the rear bumper bottom on the 2012 model has a black matt look (unpainted) is there a wa(y u can buy this and put this on? Is it separate to the rest of the bumper I think the black looks good.
You can simply get it painted or vinyl wrapped

Vinyl wrapping will allow you to peel itself off when you want to get rid of it
The part of the valance in which you wish to colour is not separate from the bumper

For the record, I did mine well before the cool kids at Mazda did theirs

Lowered on H&R Springs (as per my sig )
Vinyl wrapping is something akin to tinting windows. It's not incredibly difficult to do, but it's easy to screw up if you haven't done it before, and it's generally cheap enough just to pay someone else to do it to avoid the hassle
I got mine done by CarX in Clayton. Took two guys about an hour and a half or so. Cost from memory was $200
Wherever you go, just make sure they use good automotive grade vinyl (eg 3M or equivalent). Cheap stuff will either peel or might not have any decent level of UV protection (so it will fade)

Did my rear end in vinyl grey in early 2010, I think I may have inspired a few... :P
Then went black a month back..
Welcome mate! Aluminium is definitely a nice colour on these cars!
I have a set of OEM roof racks that I might be willing to part with if you're desperate.

I am pick specific and picky about my car and they look after me everytime I'm on. Can't knock em really
My 70,000km service was $280.00 but I get a 10% discount because of the extended warranty I purchased
Justan is a good guy and always looks after me and all my stupid questions

Hey Andre, welcome to the MPS family! Good to see another snowboarding MPS owner. That, I believe, makes 3 of us now.
Good choice with the aliminium. If @Caffeine Fiend and @LOOPYMPS 's cars are anything to go by, they can look absolutely brilliant!
