I am replacing my shingles and am not sure if I should just leave
the old
drip edge. It look perfectly fine to me and I don't really want to
replace
it if it isn't needed.
Any reason for replacing it? It's painted metal and probably 12
years old.

are you tearing off the old shingles? you will likely tear up the
drip edge
in the process,, that stuff is only about a buck per 10 feet.
probably
easier to rip it off then try to be careful on the prep.

Why would you tear it up? Nothing is fastened to it, or at least
shouldn't be. I am currently doing my 4th re-roof (house, 2 sheds and
garage) in 3 years and haven't had to replace a strip yet. If it is in
good condition, leave it.
