Well, as a line in the plane is determined by 2 coefficients only, I'd guess that trying to find an R function that plots a line defined by 4 coefficients has about the same chance of success as finding a unicorn with 3 horns.
You do understand that your linear model defines a hyperplane in your three covariates, do you not? Or do I misunderstand what you have requested?
