Is there a fix for bad side molding?

[WyattTX]

I know this is an age old problem GM is infamous for. But have any of ya'll experimented with different methods of aplying it, that didn't make it fall off later my current Truck has sheet metal screws driven into it by the previous owner. When I get it repainted.one, I'd like to avoid that method. What's funny is GM still has this problem today. My friend bought a 2010 silverado high countRyder brand new. The molding on that truck falls off, if you look at it wrong. Input would be appreciated, thanks.
