I guess you could shorten it to Kia pugo.Yes but that relies on context as to whether you are expressing approval or disgust. Compare Kia vetero!
By the way, I judge this phrase (dat ass) as unknown to speakers of the Queen's English. I have never heard it pass the lips of anybody this side of the pond.

"Que culo" definitely sounds analogous to this phrase to me.
As for the phrase's actual use-ed-ness(frequency of use?), I've only seen it on the internet as a humorous quip.

I'm with sudanglo on this.
Although I am not British, English is my mother tongue, and I have never heard this expression.
Without the explanation provided I could have expected that it referred to an ass (donkey).
