You should never modify the contents of the bower_components folder. We'll make sure to make that clearer.

As for your question. Copy the _variables.scss file from the bower_components folder to eg. app/styles, then import it into your main.scss, or whatever it's named, above the import statement for bootstrap. This will result in your custom file overriding the default variables.
