I think you should definately use css_styled_content.
Basically you create a html/css template, load the css and template via

page = PAGE
page.typeNum = 0
page.stylesheet = path/to/main.css
page.10 = TEMPLATE
page.10 {
  template = FILE
  template.file = path/to/index.tmpl.html
  workOnSubpart = DOCUMENT
  subparts.MAINCONTENT < styles.content.get
  subparts.LEFT < styles.content.getLeft
  subparts.RIGHT < styles.content.getRight
  subparts.NAVIGATION < menu
}

your html should contain the markers DOCUMENT, MAINCONTENT, etc.
Then load css_styled_content static template and you are ready to go.

cheers
Christoph
