Question How could I replace all of the Sense UI icons with the vanilla icons?

My Droid Incredible's Sense UI has all these HTC-only icons that are a lot uglier than vanilla Android (i.e. Android 2.0+). These are the icons for things like the settings panels (e.g. "Wireless & networks," "Sound & display," "Accounts & sync"), and HTC's custom versions of basic apps (e.g. Messaging, Phone, Internet, et cetera). I once had a Motorola Droid, and it had beautiful, stock vanilla icons. Now, I like HTC Sense UI overall, but I can't stand the HTC icons.

How could I go about replacing said icons? I checked the contents of framework-res.apk and didn't see any of the appropriate icon files there. Also, where can I download the vanilla Android icons?

Thanks for any help you can give!

Edit: I have rooted, and I have busybox and clockword recovery mod installed. However, MetaMorph reboots the phone during its self test.

OK, thanks. BetterCut can't do what I want, thanks though.
