As far as I know about this, you can't change the background of a datetimepicker. You cannot make a class that extends DateTimePicker and override its classes because it is an abstract class. So I guess u'll have to accept the background offered by RIM for this component.
If you check the API: http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/5.0.0api/net/rim/device/api/ui/picker/DateTimePicker.html you will see clearly that there is no Paint method or paintBackground method to override.
So for me there is no way to do that. You can use a work around method that will consist of creating a popup screen representing the object in question. Check the following two links for more help:

There is no way that you can change the default view, if you want to change that then u have to make some stub classes where you wil manually describe the classes and the functions, for the date event and import that. like importing a jar file.
