iOS7 - Change UINavigationBar border color

Question

Is it possible to change the grey border-bottom color of the UINavigationBar in iOS7?

I already tried to remove to border, but this is not working:

Well, if you want to remove bottom border you set shadow image to empty image

[navigationBar setShadowImage:[UIImage new]];

so if you want to set it to another color just create image with that color, I use a helper function to create image from color below (original source http://jslim.net/blog/2014/05/05/ios-customize-uitabbar-appearance/)

+ (UIImage *)imageFromColor:(UIColor *)color forSize:(CGSize)size 
{
return [UIImage imageFromColor:color forSize:size withCornerRadius:0];
}

+ (UIImage *)imageFromColor:(UIColor *)color forSize:(CGSize)size     withCornerRadius:(CGFloat)radius
{
CGRect rect = CGRectMake(0, 0, size.width, size.height);
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rect.size);

CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, [color CGColor]);
CGContextFillRect(context, rect);

UIImage *image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

// Begin a new image that will be the new image with the rounded corners
// (here with the size of an UIImageView)
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(size);

// Add a clip before drawing anything, in the shape of an rounded rect
[[UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:rect cornerRadius:radius] addClip];
// Draw your image
[image drawInRect:rect];

// Get the image, here setting the UIImageView image
image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();

// Lets forget about that we were drawing
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

return image;
}

and in my navbar

[navigationBar setShadowImage:[UIImage imageFromColor:[UIColor redColor] forSize:CGSizeMake(CGRectGetWidth(self.tableView.frame), 1)]];

that's it, It's working for me, hope this help. Please consider changing the accepted answer because its not working and can be confusing
