Are these truly genuine ( as far as know they where all made of plastic)?

Personally I would get the plastic ones instead of the metal.... the metal is good but if you hit it on something they dent... the plastic ones have a bit of spring to them and can bounce back, unless you hit them hard enough to crack them

I think only the later model samurai came with the metal arches!

Yes, the 1990 onwards if I remember correctly.
I might even go as far as saying only the Spanish models but not sure on that

They are completely the wrong arches for a 410 anyway ;)
