Try deactivating plugins to explore whether any could be responsible. When the inspector tool says something like that, it usually means it’s coming from the <head> part of the document and therefore either hard-coded into header.php or being generated by a plugin.
I dont have any plugins active. and yes, this is all falling under the <head> part on inspector. if its in header.php.. what should I be looking for? and it has to be part of wordpress cause its a footer-sidebar thats the 1/3rds splits across the bottom. sadly.. there is no direct PHP that I’ve seen to allow me to access that directly. anyone else have any ideas? (thanks andrew)

Can you try switching to the default Twenty Eleven/Twelve theme with all plugins deactivating, to explore this hypothesis? Also link the site please.
if I do its gonna screw up half the site… cause there is alot of under theme mods that had to be made.. there was alot pulled from the site, like removing padding and modifying alot of the footer/header space. the issue is no matter where and which file, I cannottt find for the life of me where the grey color code is going too, outside from line 54 in the <head> document. if I had access to the head doc, or at least the part where its pulling the #page-footer section from, wouldnt that allow me to modify it? all Im trying to do is give that whole footer sidebar area with the chick-fil-a pic and text and stuff a transparent background, or (no) bg so that it will show the bg image through it.
is there anyone that has any ideas for adding a css modification.. and WHERE I could add it to fix this issue?
Add this on your Custom CSS or style.css(if using a child theme)
.sidebar {
background: transparent !important;
}
