But someone posted a apple aqua theme for the 8700 that I would LOVE to have for my 7130 to install ota. I would almost pay for that.

I think you've hit the nail on the head. Icons are a big part of the visual impact of these themes -- the only other big part, I think, than the top banner and menus/dialogs. Since there are so many BB applications on these devices, it is difficult to come up with a wholly new icon theme. I made Bliss using the default 8700 4.1 icons (or the default 7100 4.1 icons in that device's case). However, I am currently working on another theme and have spent more than three hours trying to assemble a cohesive icon set for all the apps.
If you want a Jeep theme or something like that, the only thing I can think of doing (other than
maybe changing one or two icons) is somehow incorporating a watermark of the Jeep logo into the top banner and/or dialogs. But that could be messy; there's already a lot going on in the top banner and I wouldn't want to clutter it up more. The best solution I think is to find yourself a cool Jeep wallpaper and then use it with one of the themes already available. I know the default theme and my Bliss theme, at least, will work well with just about any wallpaper you put with it.
