Rails, how to add a bootstrap-theme via bower

Question

I want to use a bootstrap-theme for my rails project, for example a theme from bootswatch: http://bootswatch.com/superhero/

Currently, bootstrap is integrated in my project via Bower:

Bowerfile:

asset 'bootstrap-sass-official'

Application.css

 *= require 'bootstrap-sass-official'

The Documentation on Bootswatch says that to use a bootstrap theme, is to download the theme and to replace it with the existing bootstrap-file. Since I used bower to get bootstrap, there is no file to replace with.

What do I need to do, to use the Bootstrap-Theme?

EDIT:

I added superhero.css to stylesheets and added it to application.css:

 *= require_tree .
 *= require_self
 *= require 'bootstrap-sass-official'
 *= require 'superhero'

If your theme is having customised bootstrap then you can use bower. You need to download the bootstrap file from your theme and put in app/assests/stylesheets and then call it in application.css

*= require 'bootstrap'
