Just use my weapon clone tool to not only retexture a weapon, but create a new skin, which doesn't replace any of the existing ones: https://www.saintsrowmods.com/forum/threads/flow754s-weapon-clone-tool.15106/
Extract misc_tables.vpp_pc with Minimaul's tools and find weapon_skins.xtbl. Open the XTBL with notepad++ and find one of the skin entries for the bat. Then run my tool in CMD like this: Flow.WeaponClone.exe nameOfTheSkinEntry "bear_of_interest_dbat_skin1" "skin"
That should create a new folder in the same directory as my tool. In there should be a STR2_PC file containing the textures for your new skin variant. If you upload all files in the new folder (except for the stringxml folder) your new skin should be available at friendly fire.

So I'm assuming "bear_of_the_interest_dbat_skin1" refers to the default bat skin for the dildo bat and "skin" is just what the name will show up in when I want to load the skin using the friendly fire menu

You can replace "bear_of_interest_dbat_skin1" with something else, the point is that it's a unique name you have to come up with for the new skin entry that will be generated. It's not what it'll be called in the costumization menu in friendly fire, just what the game will use internally to reference the newly generated textures. Regarding the "skin" argument, that just specifies that you're cloning a skin, hence the first argument is the name of a skin entry.
The first argument "nameOfSkinEntry" you have to replace with an actual name of an entry in weapon_skins.xtbl (in your case "Dildobat_1")
