I have the Black Raptor Premium shocks, this kit: www.jimnybits.com/2-50mm-suzuki-jimny-bl...ift-kit-2019-on.html
Although you can buy the shocks on their own and in standard length if you want.
I would say they are quite a big improvement over stock. Evolutionary certainly, rather than revolutionary. But much better damping overall. I would also say that my stock front factory shocks seemed to be completely knackered at 26,000 miles. which had created a sideways rocking motion under high speed cornering.
With the Black Raptor kit it rides better, handles better, is better to drive on road and off road has more clearance, more suspension flex and feels more comfortable and stable. Its a win win really.

I can't see any pricing....Had Ohlins on all my bikes, all benefitted.
Unfortunately way beyond my budget. www.ohlins.eu/en/news/oehlins-for-suzuki-jimny-2018--66253/
Love to know what a full Ohlins [shocks, springs, lift] does to the Jimny. Anyone?
