Changing the icon and message bubbles are common among themes. Real code changes are rare to non-existant.

The best advice I can give is to download a current SMS theme and look at what/how it does it. (/Library/Theme/**New SMS theme***). You will get a whole lot of valuable info/tips by see what others have already done.

copy the app over and take a look inside it to see if there are any pngs that you can replace
