Here is the trick: to get the internal structure of the graphic and to
use replacement rules:

if your plot is:

myPlot=ImplicitPlot[{x^2 + y^2 ==
   4}, {x, -Pi, Pi}, PlotStyle -> {CMYKColor[1, .6, 0, 0]}]

Then type:

myPlotFromTheInside = FullForm[Graphics[myPlot]];

Then the replacement rule like this:

myPlotFromTheInside /. {CMYKColor[a_, 
    b_, c_, d_], Line[e_]} -> {CMYKColor[a, b, c, 
          d], AbsoluteThickness[5], Line[e]};

Then:
Show[Graphics[%]];

It works!!!
Also usefull for any options that you can add this way to your plot
