hi all i was wondering if it were possible to get my eblade refinished.The frame has got a couple flaky spots.Same thing with the front block but i figure i could just pick up a new one of those for a few bucks.just trying to make her look pretty again :DAlso is there a reduced weight front block?

You can get the eblade frame refinished. All ya gotta do is remove all the electronics and have it annoed. As for the frint block question, i doubt there is a lighter one out.

I've always thought that once something was chromed, its not possible to anno it. I'm not sure about re-chroming however.
Jackal sells lightened front blocks:

I buy all my Jackal stuff from G3PB.com (http://www.g3pb.com).

If it's been chromes, you can have it striped and rechromed, but not anodized.
Any plater, as with any anodizer, has a minimum charge whether it's one part or 10 parts.
Figure to spend at least $100.00 for the one frame.

Yeah, my bad i forgot that jackal made those. I thought that chrome plating could be removed with some kind of chemical or somethin. Anyway, im pretty sure you could get it rechromed though.
