How would I say" Go on take it (my hat) make my day! in Spanish, please?

I had the first part written for my picture of the day as:

Házlo ...tómalo.....

But I couldn't work out how to say "Make my day!" Like Clint Eastwood used to say in his films which would fit in with the humour of my caption. I wanted to use an idiomatic or colloquial phrase rather than a literal one unless that was inevitable/the correct way to express it !

I placed my translation into the machine and was not sure of the first two phrases but was sure the part make my day was not correct at least it sounded too literal

Here are the results ;

  1. ¡Pase... lo toma... hace mi día! 2 ¡Vaya en… lo toman… hacen mi día!
    1. Sigue ... considerar ... alégrame el día!

Here is a link to my post so suggestions can be appropriate for my caption link text

Any help would be gratefully appreciated especially from native speakers who understand the humour through the message I am trying to convey in my caption I do need a quick response please. Many thanks !!!

Corregid mi español, por favor grin

The original translation in Spain of "Go ahead, make my day" was "Anda, alégrame el día". And to be honest, I think "alégrame el día" is a very good translation for "make my day".

In your case I'd say the whole thing as: "Vamos, cógela (mi gorra), alégrame el día".
