Source for Metal Cap Flashing

I’m in a new construction building. The tops of the stucco-ed walls (made of basic concrete blocks) are only painted. I’d like to put metal cap flashing on top – and a self adhesive membrane. Looks like an easy job, but I don’t know where to find this stuff. Anyone know a source?

B&B sheet metal in LIC. They have many profiles online but also custom fabricate to order.

Not an expert, but my understanding is that you can’t always count on a perfect fit – usually the best solution for a parapet cap is sheet metal + bending brake.
