I bought a brand new Renault duster 2021 4x4, and today after 10 days of buying my new car, i noticed a rusty components around my back wheels, as follow (i mark the area in red):-
so is this normal to have rust on these components ?

I think it is OK. That part seems to be made of cast iron so surface rust is not a problem.
It's interesting that you refer to it as a Renault rather than a Dacia. I presume you are located outside Europe. Where are you and welcome to the forum.

Shouldnt be a problem painting them, but you should consult your dealer in case there are any warranty issues...
Black Hammerrite would be a good choice of paint if you can get it...

Possibly the only parts left after the body has rusted away

I drove one of these Dacia Dusters a week or two ago. It was OK. Pleasantly surprised at the whole Dacia experiance  What is the pedigree of these - Renault engines? When I say pedigree - mongrel might be a better word. Mongrel is not a bad thing healthwise in the dog world thou! |

All I've seen have been the Renault 1.5dci or the 3 cylinder petrol engines.
