You'll need to create a new UIView with a UIImageView inside it and then set that as the Accessory for the cell. So you'll need to create a image just like the default accessory but in the color you want.

UIView* accessoryView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 24, 50)];
UIImageView* accessoryViewImage = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"NEWIMAGE.png"]];
accessoryViewImage.center = CGPointMake(12, 25);
[accessoryView addSubview:accessoryViewImage];
[cell setAccessoryView:accessoryView];
[accessoryViewImage release];
[accessoryView release];

for changing text color here's the solution

- (UIView *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView viewForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component reusingView:(UIView *)view {

CGRect imageFrame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 15, 15);
UIImageView *label = [[[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:imageFrame] **autorelease**];

if (row == 0)
{
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
}
if (row == 1)
{
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
}
if (row == 2)
{
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
}   
return label;
}
