Windows Newbie - nail fin and brickmould

I've decided to install windows myself into my newly built garage, however I am not certain if I should get vinyl windows with a nail fin as well as brick mould or just with brickmould. In all honesty I don't know a lot about windows. Since this is a new construction I assume I need a nail fin and brick mould for a maintenance free finish but would like that confirmed. Is it standard to have a nail fin for windows in new construction? Thanks. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Add your waterproofing then predrill the brick moulding and use 3" long galvinized finish nails to attach it to the wall.
The stucco is then run up to the brick moulding.
