Body trim/seal question.

Putting back together an 86 GXL (and looking pretty good I might add) and I plan on putting the front fascia on this weekend if all goes well.

My question is......there is a rubber gasket/seal that goes around the entire inner edge of the front fascia where it fits to the rest of the car. How do I get that to stay in place when I am mounting the fascia? I haven't tried it yet but it looks like it will just flop around. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, particularly if you have experience doing it. Thanks.

Thanks. The old seal was stapled on too but I thought that was just the previous owner's doing as he used some very crazy repairs in the car. One of his favorites was using "great stuff", the foam you buy at home improvement centers at various places inside the car. I am assuming to stop rattles. Thanks again.
