Header color separate from nav bar

I can help, but it looks like you’re using a different theme. I’m guessing you already decided on another theme?

Add a background color to the .nav-primary on line 2213 –

.nav-primary {
	background-color: #ff8e49;		
	clear: both;
        line-height: 1;	
	margin: 0 auto;
	overflow: hidden;
	width: auto;
}

Then remove the background color that shows up as black for each navigation item/link on line 3249 –

.epik-gray .head-wrap a {
    background: #000;
    color: #000;
}

Once you add that orange background color to the nav and remove the black background it will show up with a complete orange background. Then you can change it to whatever you need.
