Bootstrap 4 - Full Width Nav with Outermost Links Touching Container Edges - html

Question

I am trying to add a full-width nav bar with Bootstrap 4 and have the left and right most links touch the edge of the container (see the nav on Etsy.com for an example of what I'm trying to achieve):
I've tried to use text-left on each nav link, but the right-most link isn't aligned properly.
Here is the CodePly I'm using:

How do I get the nav to be full width, with the left and right most links touching the edges?
Thanks
Current Code:
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm navbar-light pl-2 pt-0 pb-2 border-bottom">
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
<ul class="navbar-nav nav-fill w-100">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link text-dark mr-4 text-left" href="#">Link 1</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link text-dark mr-4 text-left" href="#">Link 2</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link text-dark mr-4 text-left" href="#">Link 3</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link text-dark mr-4 text-left" href="#">Link 4</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link text-dark mr-4 text-left" href="#">Link 5</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link text-dark text-left" href="#">Link 6</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>

You have to override default bootstrap styles and there are also some classes that are causing some problems (like text-left). Try this:
<div class="container">
<header>
<div>
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm navbar-light bg-white flex-row">
<a class="navbar-brand mr-auto" href="/"><span style="color:#0099ff">MyBrand</span></a>
<form class="form-inline my-2 my-lg-0">
<input class="form-control form-control-sm mr-sm-2" type="text" placeholder="Search">
<button class="btn btn-sm btn-outline-secondary my-2 my-sm-0" type="submit">Search</button>
</form>
<button class="navbar-toggler ml-lg-0" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
</nav>
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm navbar-light pl-2 pt-0 pb-2 border-bottom">
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
<ul class="navbar-nav nav-fill w-100 justify-content-between">
<li class="nav-item flex-grow-0">
<a class="nav-link d-inline-block text-dark text-center" href="#">Link 1</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item flex-grow-0">
<a class="nav-link d-inline-block text-dark text-center" href="#">Link 2</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item flex-grow-0">
<a class="nav-link d-inline-block text-dark text-center" href="#">Link 3</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item flex-grow-0">
<a class="nav-link d-inline-block text-dark text-center" href="#">Link 4</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item flex-grow-0">
<a class="nav-link d-inline-block text-dark text-center" href="#">Link 5</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item flex-grow-0">
<a class="nav-link text-dark text-center" href="#">Link 6</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
</div>
</header>
</div>
