Hi Andre,

You can use the ViewCellFormatting event for this. Here is an example:

private void RadGridView1_ViewCellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.CellElement is GridHeaderCellElement && e.Row.ViewTemplate == radGridView1.Templates[0])
    {
        e.CellElement.DrawFill = true;
        e.CellElement.ForeColor = Color.Blue;
        e.CellElement.NumberOfColors = 1;
        e.CellElement.BackColor = Color.Aqua;
    }
    else
    {
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.DrawFillProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local);
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.ForeColorProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local);
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.NumberOfColorsProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local);
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local);
    }
}

I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.
