Same here. The best I found is to make a command that quits TM, copy  
the icons and reopen TM.



Make a new command with:
Save:Nothing
Input: none
Output: Discard

Paste this (be sure to put the path to your icons):

#############################

{ APP_PATH=$(ps -xwwp $PPID -o command|grep -o '.*.app')
   osascript -e 'tell app "TextMate" to quit'

   for (( i = 0; i < 5 && $(echo $(ps -xp $PPID|wc -l))-1; i++ )); do
     sleep .2;
   done

cp -f "Path/To/Your/IconsFolder/*" /Applications/TextMate.app/ 
Contents/Resources/

   if [[ $(ps -xp $PPID|wc -l) -ne 2 ]]; then
     open "$APP_PATH"
   fi

} &>/dev/null &

#############################
