My guess is that the kind of person who would know what "wtf" means would not be offended to see "wtfwjd".

I personally do not put anything on my car for fear of vandalism, because I live in a red state.

What The F**k Would Jesus Do?

No, I don't like the curse word in there.

Out of curiosity, as a not native English speaker: wtf would WJD mean?

The original phrase is, What Would Jesus Do?

This is combined with the net acronym WTF (What The F**k?)

To produce WTFWJD? (What The F**k Would Jesus Do?)

Tasteless, isn't it?

I know what it means.
And it's offensive on more levels than I can count.
Including the appearance that you don't value your own life.

I'm not a christian, but I got the impression that he gave his
life for something he thought was a worthy cause. You are
taking a risk for the sake of a pointless joke, in his name.

Personally I wouldn't care if I saw that and I am not a Christian but I wouldn't do it because you never know how someone else may react. If someone becomes offended by that, someone could do some damage. Something to consider.

I'm wondering what would Jesus think about it.

I'm wondering why people ascribe their own opinions to a guy who's been dead for 2000 years.

I'm not offended, but I also don't think it's funny.

You can blame that one on Paul. Mister "all things to all men." He went around telling the pagans that they could white-wash all their gods and practices, give them new names, and everyone can pretend they share a religion. They've been doing it ever since.

I'd think it was hilarious. People are too easily offended. Then again, I think 'Ass Pie' is funny too, so maybe I'm just too easily amused.
If God exists I think he has a sense of humor. Hence the platypus.
