  I don't think you can do ithis in illustrator, but if yo've got a copy of 3d Studio MAX laying around, you can use that to edit your splines, and it gives you some pretty cool functionality

  eg:

  you can create one side of your spline, mirror it and set the mirrored one to be an instance of the other, so when you adjust the curve on one, it's automaticly reflected in the other... handy for when you're just eyeballing things until they look right.

  you can then export the spline as an AI file I beleive.

  it's not worth max for just that, but if you have it, might as well use it.
