As far as kubernetes is concerned the proper way to implement cross-cluster setup as in the OP's case is via Federation. I have never done it but, just from looking at the docs, I can say for sure it is not an easy task to take on. Far more complex than forging host headers I must say ;-). Sorry I can't provide any useful input, as a humble user I usually go with what ever the clever people of this great project come up with and I'm sure it will always be the right decision.
