One way to approach it would be to
-create a function that returns the density for each x and y
-assign a density score to each case
-determine the quantiles
-draw the pseudo-3d or contour plot with colors or levels at the  
desired proportion.

I think I have seen worked examples of this process, so it may be that  
searching on "quantile" instead of "percent" would be more successful.
