A geometric plane has no borders. Drawing it through the complete area of the axes does not allow for an easy recognition, because you have either the complete axes filled by a color or by a line, if the view direction is inside the plane. So please specify what you want to achieve, what is the prupose of including the plane in the visualisation? E.g. I'm drawing geometric planes in a 3D animation using a transparent square with solid edges to visualize the degrees of freedom of a rotation. The edge is meaningless in this case, but it helps to recognize the direction of the plane.

For a start you could have a look at this aeroplane:
It draws this using MATLAB:

Of course you can modify and paint it pink, if you so wish. You could contact the author of that function and ask how they created it.

% Define the x-y-z coordinates for the airplane
x = [0 1 2 2 0 -2 -2 -1 0 0 0 0];
y = [0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 3 3];
z = [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0];
% Create a 3D plot of the airplane
plot3(x,y,z,'LineWidth',2);
% Set the axis limits
xlim([-3 3]);
ylim([-1 4]);
zlim([-1 1]);
% Set the axis labels
xlabel('x');
ylabel('y');
zlabel('z');
% Set the title
title('Airplane Example');
