UINavigationBar styling without background images

I'm trying to find a way to modify the style of my UINavigationBar without using images. I want to create a flat UINavigationBar with a solid color. Is my only option to subclass UINavigationBar and draw the complete NavigationBar myself? I'm targeting iPhones running iOS 6.0.

you can use UINavigationBar appearance

here you go, edit rgb values of colors as you need

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    [[UINavigationBar appearance] setBackgroundImage:[[UIImage alloc] init] forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
    [[UINavigationBar appearance] setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:1/256.0 green:96/256.0 blue:149/256.0 alpha:1.0]];

 return YES;

}

Note: this wont effect bar button items , you have to look at [[UIBarButtonItem appearance] if you want to change buttons too 

[[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:126/256.0 green:181/256.0 blue:55/256.0 alpha:1.0]];
