Wind Turds are a No-No for any application other than commercial wind farms using someone else's money to buy them.
Anyway, another thought for the OP: you mentioned flexible solar panels, which I'm guessing is for cosmetic reasons. Another thing you might consider is frameless panels. They're not flexible, but they're extremely low profile (a few mm's thick), and are often bizarrely cheap, I've seen them in the $60 range for 300 watt panels. I think when the frames have defects they're no longer usable for grid tied installs, and then they come to us nice and cheap.
Anyway lots of people use those panels in the VW Westphalia universe, since they're lighter, which keeps the pop top easy to lift. So if you have trouble figuring out how to mount them, you might see how they're solving it.
