I have setup my bashrc prompt colors exactly the way I want them. My issue is that some scripts and apps change the color back to the default gray. I would like to change this behaviour and have no idea where to procede.
EDIT: What i need to change is the default system prompt color. Any ideas on how to do so?

I think this is on an application-by-application basis. The reason why the applications are changing the background color is because they aren't using the X defaults. You seem to have successfully changed the system X defaults. Now you need to change the applications to use those defaults.
What applications are changing the terminal background?

pacman is one and rkhunter is another. Also here is my PS1 entry in case it might help
PS1='\[\033[1;36m\]\d\[\033[0m\]\[\033[1;36m\] \@ \[\033[0m\]\n\[\033[1;32m\]\u\[\033[0m\]\[\033[1;37m\] @ \[\033[0m\]\[\033[1;32m\]$PWD\[\033[0m\]\[\e[1;36m\] \$ '
I know there is a way to change the system default font color in runlevel3 I think thats what I need to change. Its the font color not the background i want to change
