When you do the reassembly I am sure everyone would welcome some pictures of the process. Also a part number for future reference would be a nice share.
Highly unlikely that Mazda would support two different platforms worldwide. They chose the Chevy/Isuzu combination (note -- the Chevy Colorado is on the D-Max platform).
The US is not getting a new Mazda truck - better look to Hyundai if you are looking for a crossover with a cargo bed...
yeah here is one example:

I think @Glee217 has gotten the answer requested. I hope follow-up pictures with the solution in place is posted.
@murky already answered the question for the bolt. Here is a related conversation

and they still do (just not in America):

So the problem is intermittent? The lights don't immediately illuminate at time of ignition on? Time to look at the back of each wheel assembly and look for damage to the abs / wheel sensors. Are you in a region with salt used on the roads? If yes those sensors and brackets could be working...

The colored paint is an obstacle for an easy sale. Sure a bit of paint thinner and it is gone, but it is still an obstacle. Plus if you are carrying around a brightly spray painted catalytic convertor under your arm it tends to garner attention.
Honestly not much of a deterrent and more of a...

Glad things worked out for you. I would have been curious if a product like:
