Can't change colour of the ends of the navbar (Bootstrap)

Here is an example of exactly what I mean:

As you can see I have a fixed nav any I cant seem to be able to get the edges of it coloured :(

Here is my HTML structure:

<nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
            <div class="container nav">
                <div class="row">
                    <div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-6">
                        <img src="media/images/logo.png" alt="Driven Car Sales" class="img-rounded logo-custom">
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </nav>

I just don't know how to edit those edges.

Any help would be great thanks :)

Does your navbar-default have a background colour? It looks like the edges still have the colour set to white.

So do I need to go into the bootstrap css to change this? Thanks

Yes, that is what I would do
