I justs wanted to know, with that jdm low beam projectors can you relocate the blinker to the corner lense?

You can move the corner indicators to the headlamp. You'll need to modify the headlamp though. It would be inadvisable to move the side repeaters to the headlamp as the parking beam lens mainly directs light forwards rather than sidewards.

The JDM headlights have a separate parking lights beam. I simply used a dremel to carefully open up the hole to take a 3057 bulb and holder. 3057 bulbs are generally not used in UK models but are very common in JDM models. They are easy to acquire in most markets including the UK and the US.

If you take your time, you can open up the hole to take the new bulb holder and if you make the hole the right shape, the holder will clip in place and hold without the need for additional restraints.

3057 is a dual filament wedge bulb where the dim filament meets the UK and US requirements for a parking light and the bright filament meets the requirements for a turn signal (indicator).

Alternatively, one could drill an additional hole in the high beam lamp (I believe the JDM non-clear high beam comes from the factory with the required hole), move the parking lamp function there and use the low beam parking lamp hole for the turn function. You might have problems finding a bulb that is bright enough without scorching its holder with this method though.
