heeckkkk yeah! is there a down side to just replacing the existing reputationframe.lua with the edited one instead of putting it inside my custom patch?

The downside is that you are replacing the original data, which could break it for any other server you play or any other project you work on. It also makes it harder to identify which files have been changed for when you want to create a patch to send to players.

There is another exe edit you can make to load files outside of MPQ files, and I forget, but it might be possible for FrameXML/GlueXML to be modified outside of MPQs by default

it's got to be an enUS patch? or is it fine to put in for example my patch-4?

you can put it in a non-locale MPQ, i.e: patch-4
