Thanks a lot everyone, now it works great!

The way i did it is similar to songho's method, but without drawing it 4 times. The process goes like this:

1. Disable color writes and draw (filled) to create a mask in the stencil buffer
2. Enable color writes, set linewidth to something big (like 7) and draw again in wireframe where the stencil is not set.

Gaenor,
This is much simpler and more efficient than what I said before. (BTW, that is an SGI example, not mine.) I could quickly test your method and it worked well. Thanks.
