This is not the Customize interface.  You are obviously not proficient
enough with Emacs Lisp, so my suggestion was to use "M-x customize-variable"
instead:

To customize the colors of the fill-column-indicator face, use the
command "M-x customize-face".

Feel free to submit a bug report against that theme: it evidently
should define distinct colors for fill-column-indicator face.  Or you
could customize that face yourself, using "M-x customize-face".
