Need to duplicate the look & feel of the upper-left traffic-lights on a borderless window app

I'm creating an app where the client wants to have rounded corners and other oddities on the main window.  Therefore I'm thinking I need the main window to be borderless.  Unfortunately I also lose the standard look and behavior that the red-yellow-green gumdrop buttons, in the upper-left corner of every Mac-app, provide.

I typically refer to these as the horizontal traffic lights, for obvious reasons.  Early tests confirm that if I turn of the window border, I lose these elements.  So, I need to add them back in and am not sure where to start.

Anyone have any ideas or code that will help me duplicate this standard app interface and its behavior as part of my app's main window?

-Michael
