I think in most cases you are probably on the wrong track if you have to generate LaTeX code for figures from R code (LaTeX tables are another story), but your case might be different. You did not give a specific example on why you had to do that, so I cannot give any advice for now.
My best guess is <<results='asis'>>= whatever_your_figure_functions_are() @ So please provide a minimal example, and avoid indefinite descriptions like "seems" or "feels like" (in particular, "this should be easy" made me feel my IQ suddenly dropped by 50%).
