Extending Kicker plate flashing in stucco.

Q. Metal flashing is used in stucco application at the corners, where roof meets the adjacent walls. It is called kicker plate to direct water into gutters. The stucco experts says the plates are not long enough (they are between 1"-2") due to ascetic of the facade and suggests to make them longer. What do you suggest adding to the kicker plates whiteout carving the stucco for replacing them. As you know these kind of flashings are galvanized metal of high gages easy to bend.

Thanks
