Default Cutting Through Terrain

Hey guys.

I have a spline lofted with a road cross section. I also have a generic terrain shape I created in terragen. I've got this into viz as a 3d and what i'd like to do is run the road through and cut out the areas where it dips below the surface. i have seen someone do this before, but im not to sure how to go about it!

Help will be rewarded with beer! (you'll have to buy your own plane tickets though....)

if the lofted splines have not yet been collapsed, you can do a trim operation with the affected splines.
or post a screencap
