Pass a plane through a model along the X axis.
Keep track of which polys intersect the plane.
If these intersections then intersect with each other, they will form 2D shapes

borders.
Check each poly to see whether it is "inside" or "outside".
If the poly at no point in time is "outside", remove it.

Yeah, I considered that, The other way I thought of doing it is to create some sort of projection volume for each tri (Basically the halfspace stretching from the front face of the tri out to infinity), then clip that by the other tri's in the (...)
