Lawn trailer 5 gallon bucket hauler
The ATV
bucket hauler is near

Adding the plywood
extension will increase

I guess I should paint the
wood red to match the tongue, but will most likely go with whatever
exterior paint I can find in the barn.

If you haven't already done so, you might want to add some drain holes in the corners of the bottom to keep rainwater from pooling in the bin.
Take the sides off before painting and paint the surfaces that will be in contact when assembled first. Also, wood tends to rot fastest where the end grain is exposed. Adding an extra layer of paint there won't hurt.
Did you have a change to check the clearance of the trailer with the ATV in tight corners?
