DataGridView White Space After Last Column Header

After adding all your columns, you can add an extra column, set the following properties to:

 AutoSizeMode = Fill;
 HeaderText = ""
 ReadOnly = true;
 SortMode = NotSortable;

, handle the gridView CellPainting event for this particular column by preventing the borders from being painted:

 private void dataGridView1_CellPainting(object sender, 
                                         DataGridViewCellPaintingEventArgs e)
 {
     if (e.RowIndex > -1 && e.ColumnIndex == dataGridView1.Columns.Count - 1)
     {
         e.AdvancedBorderStyle.All = DataGridViewAdvancedCellBorderStyle.None;
         e.PaintBackground(e.ClipBounds, false);
         e.Handled = true;
     }
 }

and you'll get what you want.
