Hi. The rooting guide can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849030
Basically you need to have clockworkmod (aka CWM) up and running to be able to install the custom rom you're referring to. Because you've already unlocked your bootloader, you can now begin rooting your device. Follow the steps indicated in the rooting guide.
DONT DO ANYTHING after that, just finish rooting your device. I'm going to try installing this CWM-enabled kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908, and see if I can boot into CWM to flash the nTWEAKED rom. I'll let you know how it goes.

first of all your on stock (official) rom and didnt root your device ???
so for flashing this rom you need to root your device and have recovery mode too for that check the development section for custom kernels with auto-rooting and CWM too personally i think you should use this one over here :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908
instructions given in the thread how to flash kernel through fastboot mode, follow them ...
after you sucessfully flash the kernel you will have root and CWM...
now to the flashing part :-
1) copy the downloaded nTWEAKED beta V2.zip file in the root of your internal memory
2) boot in recovery by presssing volume +/- when sony logo appears with a vibration and red led glows
3)choose option update from sd
4)choose the file in your case nTWEAKED beta V2.zip
5)installation will start an aroma installer will pop up follow instructions and your done
PS:- cant get simpler than this

Framework trick ( framework-res.apk and framework.jar ) ! It is harder for me !
Search for it if you think you are enough to make it
Edit : If you want the already mod flashable zip ! Then go to Arc Theme section and search there ! Pleny are there ! Since neo V are compatible with Arc/S's framework
Don't be SHY to hit the thank button , Don't be Selfish to hit the thank button if anyone try to answer

(Search the files yourself please. I don't know the links)
Download the Flashtool by Bin4ary & Androxyde & Install it.
Download the ICS .ftf file for Neo L
Put the .ftf file in C > Program Files > Flashtool > Firmwares > Paste.
Open the Flashtool, select Flash icon. Select Flashmode. Select the .ftf file of your Phone, follow the instructions on your screen. After flashing is done 100%, it will say that Your phone will now reboot. It will not reboot on its own. Disconnect your device & just start it the usual way.
