Hi jose sias could you possibly post up a screen capture of the issue or a [Codepen](codepen.io) of your code so we can help troubleshoot

Here is a Codepen with the code you provided : http://codepen.io/anon/pen/xvEeK/ Looking in the CSS column, line 75, you have a bottom border, this is creating the green strip

When you say "however on the right hand side it's cut off", which part do you mean?
