Mimic Xenforo - HTML or CCS?

[akia]

I'm currently using xenforo and phpmydirectory.

I want to style phpmydirectoy to look like xenforo so that my site looks intergrated.

Now I've only got a basic grasp of HTML and CSS but I'm sure this little project is where I'm going to learn a whole lot more.

Now I'm not sure which way round to do it.

Am I better rewriting the HTML to work with the xenforo css with anything extra I need put in extra.css or am I better rewriting the css of phpmydirectory to look like xenforo.

I have done this before, I scrapped the project but I also did it with wordpress too

The way I did it, I just edited phpld to look like my xenforo forum, I took about 2 hours
