Extensive sandblast pitting on the front fascia from a particularly windy
trip back from skiing last March. Driving 65-75 with wind gusts to 50 is not
the best situation but I'd hardly consider it extreme. I can't help thinking
the finish still should have have held up better. Any comments...Any
recourse with Subaru?

this is normal wear and tear.
i don't see why would this bother you especially considering
this was self inflicted.

in my case it took some altercations with the hills to do
the same.

Only if Subaru were actually driving the car at the time and continued
to drive it into the sand and grit blowing at the time.
