Rob,

There's a relatively straightforward way to do this documented in the help
under the colorscheme command. Essentially you need to create your own
colorscheme based on the default one, and then load it instead. The machine I'm
on is running an oldish 7.4 version, so I'm not 100% certain that this hasn't
changed, but ':help colorscheme' would be a good place to start.
