Truck camper, solar panels and wind buffeting???

OK, Thanks for the help! My concern with any sort of air dam was mounting it without drilling any holes anywhere in the camper and still having it secure enough that it would not damage the the camper skin if it moved/rubbed from the wind. After looking at it today, it appears I can fab something that attaches to the front of the 80/20 bar and rest it on the metal trim bar that seals the transition from the front of the camper and the roof.
