Couple of items as a result of a visit to my dealer;

1. Saw the rotary crest. Polished one nice and not too polished but the brushed one I saw was painted to look distressed. Really terrible close up. For tit grey owners avoid brushed as it looks too close to colour of car.
2. Sports exhaust - dealer advised that because of increased breathing there should be a resulting benefit in both hp and mpg as well as slightly beefier sound.
3. The accessories brochure he had was slightly different to the one I got in the post with larger photos. Information the same but included aluminium window switch which my book did not contain.
4. My dealer will include mats as part of the deal.
5. Rotary watched to be given out with each new car not being done as Mazda have not supplied them.

Pleased I've got polished then

I would agree on the brushed, saw crest and strakes at the weekend, not what I was expecting at all. The finish looks like silver Airfix paint.

 

Thanks for the tip guys... polished it is

 

I'm not ordering a thing - waiting for aftermarket. Dont mind paying top money for a quality accessory, but not paying 180 quid for cheap sh*t.

 

Would totally agree with Rael here.

I would strongly advise anyone who has ordered brushed to have a look at it before you commit to buying them, or having them fitted to your car.

You may well like it, but the majority seem to think its not what you would expect from a brushed aluminium finish.

I saw them at the roadshow back in the summer and instantly knew it was polished for me.

Cheers
