The link you posted doesn't work for me so no comment on that. According to the manual it's recommend to replace the following: brake fluid, cabin air filter, engine oil and filter, engine air filter, and spark plugs.
DIY costs I'd anticipate:
$20 brake fluid
$20 cabin air filter
$50 oil
$10 filter & crush washer
$15 engine air filter
$100 for spark plugs (no joke, but at once or twice per your ownership of the car, I'm not going to balk on this one)
Any of these costs could be upgraded if you decide to go with something other than basic OE specs (oil, air filter, brake fluid, etc.)
Total parts cost: $215
Labor: ??? They could nail you for 4 hours of labor, due to lifting the engine for spark plugs, could be 1 hour if they're super aggressive, so this could be a $300 service or a $700 service if they mark all the parts up and work slow.
If you plan on driving hard I'd replace the MT fluid and the differential fluid as well.
