The color on mine is copperhead metallic. As for what the X includes... The hood, metal front and rear bumpers, black wheels, red tow hooks front and rear, red accenting(TR badge, swaybar/locker switches/hood label), slush mats, grab handles, black leather interior w seat heaters standard, special gauge cluster and steering wheel accenting, Enhanced Mopar rock rails, and a trail rated kit. I might be missing some little things but it's a damn nice package.

Price for the kit may not be much different, but to do it right it will be way more expensive. One big issue is getting caster and pinion angle right. You'll need a lot of pinion angle up front, but then caster goes to crap. You either cut and rotate the C's or you buy a new housing with more degrees of separation (stock is 6* and you'd want about 10*). Might get away with not doing much tot he rear axle with a 4 door, but most likely you'd want to cut and rotate the brackets.

Absolutely plans for the new one. Pulled the end caps off the bumper already, threw a CB in it. Recovering from the down payment and then 2-3" lift and 35's going on it. Maximus3 winch plate on the way and a few other little goodies. Only time will tell.
Was lucky to score this color. Had to order it and it's quite the story behind the order. Many color changes happened on that order sheet.
