I used industrial Velcro to put an air dam on my Volvo but it isn't nearly as big as yours is planned. Even so, the pressure on it at highway speed is significant. I calculated the pressure once but I've lost those figures. It was several pounds per square inch. Google "wind force" or "wind pressure" to get information. You may have to use physical fasteners such as bolts, screws and brackets.
