Well the problem is that you have all the content inside of the "container" div. Which is centered and a specific wdith.

What you need to do is have something like this

Code:

<div class="top">
    <div class="container">
        <div id="cart-summary"></div>
    </div>
</div>

So you make the top div span 100% and have the background colour
Then you have all of the content for that inside of the container div which is centered.

Hope this helps.
