Anyone have any luck installing cab trim without drilling holes?

Like the title says, anyone tape their moulding on? My truck never came with it but I found some at the pick and pull. I've got the white clips and the mounting clips on the corner piece, but I don't really want to drill holes in my freshly painted cab. Picks would rock and or the tape used Thanks a lot!!

You'll have a gap between the molding and body.
