If you want to put a flag on your car, go for it. You should be aware of what it represents though. For some context it is like unwittingly putting up a nazi flag (not just a swastika) on your car. Even if you don't know what it means for whatever reason, it's fine, but other people will.

You could argue that this flag represents even worse than the nazi flag, as Imperial Japan was far, far worse than Nazi germany in terms of what they did to people, and how widespread their line of thinking was throughout the country. With the Nazis, the atrocities were mostly kept within the higher ranks of the military, and kept from public. That wasn't the case in Japan back then.
