I think they are only made in Iceland yes. And the company name is Formverk.
Well I'll try to translate this text as best as I can..
Modifications for suzuki jimny
About price for modificatios, 12 thousands ISK KR for spring lift (spacers?), plus tires for 31", but for 33",If you want to do this probarly then you should buy fender flares wich are 70 - 90.000 ISK KR unpainted, unless you want to use cheaper fender flares of vitara og something like that. That has been done before and is not expensive. The author, Birgir has modified 4 and owned 5 modified Jimny's
31"
For 31" tires you need
4,5 cm spring lift, Costs about 12000 ISK KR the company is Málmsteypan Hella in Hafnarfjörður,
31" tires,
Mudflaps,
make shocks longer, that is simple
Cut out of plastic and a little with sledge hammer.
33"
For 33" you need
4,5 cm ,spring lift
33" tires
Mudflaps,
make shocks longer,
Cut wheel arches,
And put the right fender flares, cutsmon made or just mixed.
You have to have in mind the (samsláttur - uhm... the rubber thats stops the axle for going too far up....)is correct.
It would not be worse if you would lift the body also, but that is more work.
Do you think it is possible to ship a set of these to Norway? Any idea on the price?
Well the price 70.000 - 90.000 ISK KR... And I have no idea about shipping, at the moment I am looking for fender flares made for 35" tyres, but I havent found any who makes them. The company that made them is no longer in (operation?).
Here is a picture of 35" jimny and mine (the blue), two years ago.

Thank you very much! I just emailed Formverk, and hopefully they can give me a good offer.
Just talked to a friend of mine, he told me that 90000 is around 600 Euro, which is a really good price. Hopefully the shipping cost wont be that high.
Do you know which rimsize (witdth) Broncoisl have on his white rims in this thread:
Klick here
Wonder if it is 7 or 8 x 15.. Probably with ET -20?

Hi.
Unfortunately, my Jimnyproject is currently halting at "stage 1", including plans for just 31". This is due to economical concerns.. With 33" I think it is allmost impossible to drive without rocklobster +++. I was in contact with one of theese guys: www.samtak.is , www.formverk.is , or www.alltplast.net about the flares. Dont remember witch one, but one of them makes the flares, and ships them abroad. I think the price was around 6-800 euros for a set of four.
I would say HolmarH has one of the nicest looking Jimny existing, and clearly shows the need for theese flares to pull of 33". (dont like Bushwackers etc on the Jimny...)
