From browsing around, it looks like Mercedes are claiming that they need to make up 1 sec to compete with the top teams and they are hoping that their new parts will help them. Hopefully we will get some pictures soon since this week is the final winter test before Melbourne on the race weekend of March 25-27.

Ferrari seem to have a revised front wing and endplates, red bull style exhaust and diffuser:




I will try to get find a better picture of the diffuser later this week when more pictures come out during the final test. The one I saw on f1technical wasn't too clear

Looks like 150th italia has revised radiator outlets


Another angle of the 150th italia front wing


If anyone is interested, here is the HRT F111


STR06 diffuser, it has 2 slots underneath the gurney flaps on the top


Better shot of the STR06 front wing


Revised rear for the R31: diffuser and beam wing
before the final test on the top and new version on the bottom


I will try to do some more digging later
