A vehicle flow influencing assembly includes, among other things, a downforce generator that extends laterally outward from an area of a vehicle, and that extends longitudinally from a leading edge portion to a trailing edge portion, the trailing edge portion aligned along a longitudinal axis of the vehicle with a side mirror of the vehicle, the downforce generator configured to influence flow to reduce buffeting.
