Your best bet at this point is to try the native KDE packages for OSX.
These do not use X at all, and follow the Auqua style guidelines.
AFAIK KOffice, Kate and KDevelop are currently running on OSX. You should
be able to run almost all of it. There was noise on dot.kde.org some time
ago about this. Google should find the rest.
