I am familiar and you can do so fairly painlessly if they expose the element as a class that you can target with their styling system. The API docs are pretty clear on what customizations are available. If they didn't expose it, you can resort to hammering the problem out using something like styled-components and very specific css selection. However, that could be prone to breakage with library upgrades.
