Yeah. You need to edit the overall_header.tpl and simple_header.tpl files like so:

Find
Code:
<!-- link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/subSilver/{T_HEAD_STYLESHEET}" type="text/css" -->
<style type="text/css">
<!--

  NOTE: These CSS definitions are stored within the main page body so that you can use the phpBB2
  theme administration centre. When you have finalised your style you could cut the final CSS code
  and place it in an external file, deleting this section to save bandwidth.

/* Import the fancy styles for IE only (NS4.x doesn't use the @import function) */
@import url("templates/subSilver/formIE.css");
-->
</style>


Replace with:
Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="templates/subSilver/{T_HEAD_STYLESHEET}" type="text/css">

/* Import the fancy styles for IE only (NS4.x doesn't use the @import function) */
@import url("templates/subSilver/formIE.css");


Now you should be able to make all your edits in the subSilver.css file
