Is the Aerodynamic Package for the C63s Facelift Coupe the same as the Edition1 kit (with the exception of the boot spoiler - I know that's different)?
No, it's not. The FL has a different rear diffuser than the PFL, so the aero rear diffuser is also different. The front splitter is the same, and I believe the side skirts as well and the rear flicks. Tried to find some good comparison pictures. Below you should be able to see the difference between the Edition 1 diffuser and the aero diffuser on mine. The aero diffuser besides the different design of the diffuser itself has a more aggressive splitter and wraps around the exhaust tips.

Thanks for the info and pictures.
I prefer the Facelift diffuser anyway, especially given the gloss black. So I guess its the Aerodynamic/Edition-1 Frontlip Spoiler, Side Skirts, Rear Flicks I want plus the Aerodynamic Kit Rear Boot Spoiler.
In Australia, we don't have access to them as a package that we can add on when we purchase the car. Nor will they sell the OEM parts to us apparently. They were released on one edition ("Aero-Edition") since the facelift in 2020. So not really sure how to get them. I think the Aero/Edition-1 spoilers really add some aggression and poise to the cars aesthetic.

I'm not entirely sure what you are saying. Did you mean you prefer the PFL diffuser? Anyway, the diffuser and spoiler are also available in carbon in case you didn't know. The splitter is still gloss black, but the diffuser itself is carbon. I have all the carbon exterior packages on mine. Here's a more direct shot of the rear with the CF spoiler and diffuser.

Your car looks great!
I was saying I prefer the diffuser on the facelift rather than the Edition-1 diffuser. If I had the black like yours I'd prefer carbon fibre as the slight contrast in colour looks great. But I have the Graphite Magno so I like the contrast of gloss black aerodynamics (diffusers, skirts, spoilers, mirrors etc.).
