Site Actions bar color scheme

[arodri]

I am trying to change the color of the menu bars (top menu bar, and left side navigation bar) to match the color of the Site Actions bar at the top.
I was able to find a matching color(SiteSettings > SiteTheme) and applied the new site theme to our site, but now the SiteActions menu is the color that our old menu used to be, and the two main menus are now the color that the Site Actions bar used to be.
It looks like they have an inverse relationship when it comes to changing the color?

Does anyone know how to change the color of the menu bars without changing the color of the Site Actions bar?

Thanks in advance for any help!
