@AziCode

Add the below line in your func updateDatePicker() , if you like to get the exact color use RGB color coding with UiColor

targetedDatePicker.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
targetedDatePicker.setValue(UIColor.greenColor(), forKeyPath: "textColor")
targetedDatePicker.setValue(0.8, forKeyPath: "alpha")

And refer the link and sample codes for same examples :- http://blog.deeplink.me/post/81386967477/how-to-easily-customize-uidatepicker-for-ios

can I change the font color of the datePicker in iOS7?

Normaly i have good idea,but just change font color:

[self.datePicker setValue:[UIColor whiteColor] forKeyPath:@"textColor"];
    SEL selector = NSSelectorFromString( @"setHighlightsToday:" );
    NSInvocation *invocation = [NSInvocation invocationWithMethodSignature :
                                [UIDatePicker
                                 instanceMethodSignatureForSelector:selector]];
    BOOL no = NO;
    [invocation setSelector:selector];
    [invocation setArgument:&no atIndex:2];
    [invocation invokeWithTarget:self.datePicker];
