as per the title, a few notes:
1) I want to keep this a mostly hexblade not just a dip
2) I know dreadful wraith is good but this guy will most likely be playing in Eberron so no Faerunian Regional feats.

Other than that I am open to any suggestions.

I'd drop Monk.
There is a Dragon Magazine with a feat called Extra Curse or something - find it.

Really I was thinking evasion and combat reflexes were worth the dip, also then I wouldnt have to buy hide cross class. and stunning fist seems to synergize well we the hexblades abiltie to lower saves. I found the extra curse feat but I wasnt sure if it would be which feat would be worth dropping

Grab a 2 level dip of the LE paladin from unearthed arcana. It lets you add your cha to saves again.

Or if you want a little less cheese... Swap out your bgaurd levels for it instead, and you won't need any prereqs.

I was thinking of doing that but I'm undecided on whether or not I want to follow a code of conduct...

Hmmm, after you get Blackguard 3 for Command Undead (a similar mechanic to standard turning/rebuking) grab Divine Might. It allows you to sacrifice those worthless TU attempts to add +cha to your damage. Thats pretty good. At least you do something with those attempts.
