Getting rid of TouchWiz - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

So, I was thinking of restoring my phone back to the original Samsung ICS ROM but I absolutely abhor the TouchWiz UI. I was wondering if anyone here could suggest anything to theme the stock ROM into ICS look.
Any help would be appreciated!!

why dont you just flash an AOSP rom? If not then just download a launcher(Nova, Apex, ect)
edit: Or I'd suggest going JB, most ROMs are stable enough to dd.

AOSP is CM10 right? Its like I keep trying ROMs but each one has issues. But now I'm trying the All Star AOKP and I hope it works..otherwise I'll just go to the stock version and install a launcher.
Thanks for the help though.

What is YOUR favorite ROM?

Tell me, what's your favorite ROM so far and why?

For daily use, it has been FreeGS3 R5, it's just extremely stable and has the good stock stuff in there.
for features it'd be AOKP JB, cause it CM10 and has more UI features...
Free gs3. Just downloaded aokp for the second time...great ROM. Lots of cool features, hoping its more stable than last one.

Looking for most AOSP-like TouchWiz JB ROM

About to root my new GS3 ... I would like some recommendations on ROMs ...
I want a ROM that:
1. Looks as much as possible like AOSP/CM
2. Is based on latest JB TouchWiz
3. Is stable (duh)
Looking at FreeGS ...
Thanks!
Why not just go with jb aosp
It's stable
If that isn't good enough for you
Download cm10
Install any odex jb rom (pretty much all of them)
Unzip cm10
Go to the system folder
Get what ever app you want (i suggest leaving alone phone app)
Push to /system on the phone
Delete all equivalents of replaced apps
Reboot
If it worked that's good if it didn't reflash the Rom

Thanks, yeah, I saw the NoWiz thing ... but that's not really like AOSP, since it's all (overly, IMHO) themed blue... AOSP doesn't mess with your icons.
You can use ninjamorph to change your icons
I've done it before

Help: i need a good TW-JB debloat/tweaked rom

I really love the features of the touchwiz stock ROM but I feel it is very slow compared to something like cm10. Is the a touchwiz ROM that someone has debloated and tweaked. Thanks

Highly recommend Frosty JB incredible battery life and the best touchwiz experience I have had by far. Toggles and themes to the extreme.

Or use aosp with a touchwiz launcher to give you that stock feel but touchwiz does have some nice features although in don't use it cause I'm addicted to PACs customization
