Some SPLATS, can be used as a spline, or have identical spline materials which work better. You can use the colorize -> alpha to paint transparency at certain spots along the spline, such as the edge's. By default, the spline will have gradient 0%-100% alpha at the ends, for blending.
That will most likely be the best solution for your question.
