I meant bend the aluminum rake trim to fit under the shingles.
it is called "rake trim"


Now just why would you go to all that trouble when standard drip edge
does the same thing? Clue, drip edge is used on the rake also. The
drip edge and installation would be cheaper than the time spend
dicking around bending your 'rake trim'. I have to agree with MOe =
yo don't know WTF you are talking about.
