Google translate suggests "proxeneta". A pimp is a person who
controls/procures prostututes; to pimp someone out is to dress them up
so that they look like a whore. Given that the word "gimp" is in there,
I don't think there's anything that can be done to make the phrase
inoffensive, so "pimp my gimp ready for tricks" seems fine to me. For
that one I got, "chulo mi gimp listo para prostituirse" which is even
more awesome.
