Actually there is not official Apple available to do that. And Apple may reject you app if you do that. If you just wants to customize indexBar then below library may help you (It can't customize what you currently wants).

You can use custom library GDIIndexBar (iOS 6+), which you can customize.

Here's sample snippet for GDIIndexBar

GDIIndexBar *indexBar = [[GDIIndexBar alloc] initWithTableView:tableView];
indexBar.delegate = self;
[self.view addSubview:indexBar];

You can customize as per follows:

[[GDIIndexBar appearance] setTextColor:[UIColor redColor]];
[[GDIIndexBar appearance] setTextShadowColor:[UIColor purpleColor]];
[[GDIIndexBar appearance] setTextFont:[UIFont italicSystemFontOfSize:11.5];
