Fancy Dress - Is this idea in bad taste??

Bad taste? Certainly.
But quite probably, this stunt would be self-regulating. Once he's dealt with the grief he'd get, he can return to the party, nicely bandaged up as a ... Patient.

I think he should go as a "penis", far more apt in my view!

is this in bad taste?
Yes, extremely bad taste.
I wouldn't blame any parents present for lamping him one.

Deffo no! But then I thought the 'under eights' joke is in bad taste. 
The first reaction will determine the rest - but me thinks he will wish he hadn't bothered.

I would fear it might be one of those things that seemed funny at the time, but would be a little problematic in trying to explain what you're meant to be ... probably not a good idea

Hmmm... the letter 'P' you say...
Just turn up at the door wearing nothing but a pair of Y-fronts. The ensuing conversation will go something like this:
Chappers: 'Hi, I'm here for the party'
Host: 'Sorry mate, it's fancy dress only, themed on the letter 'P'
Chappers: 'Yeah, sure, what's the problem? I AM in fancy dress'
Host: 'What are you supposed to be then?'
Chappers: 'I'm Premature Ejaculator innit'
Host: 'You WHAT? How do you work that one out then?'
Chappers: 'I've just come in me pants'

Hmmmm-not sure that Chris Morris set out to convince people that paedophilia is funny. Wasn't the object of the programme to satirise the media's hysterical approach to paedophilia. If your mate thinks he can pull off the satire with the right level of irony then good luck to him. Otherwise I'd leave well alone.

Some of it was a bit queasy. But bits were spot on.
Liked the paedophile confronted with all the different names for him ("Crazy World of Arthur Brown" -), and blustering: "It's just another kind of racism". . .
Suspect, though, in these circumstances - well, one Chris Morris, there's only one Chris Morris. . .
Much safer and easier, nsurely, to just wear an eyepatch, get a toy parrot, and be a pirate.
Rather than just walking the / being a plank.

i once got an email of various fancy dress costumes. there was a fanny, a man shagging a sheep, and one was of a guy dressed as a priest with a dummy of a young boy strapped to his front.
i thought it was very funny. am i sick?

As with all these matters of taboo humour, CONTEXT is everything. If virtually everyone at the party knows your mate and are familar with and accepting of his sense of humour, there will be little problem. If, as is more probable, that isn't the case, then it's a bad idea.
Fascinating subject, though. If you consider all the finest American television of the past 5 years have all been about trangressing accepted boundaries of taste and manners/political correctness, eg. South Park's "I've never seen a Jew run that fast since Poland, 1938".
British TV is a bit behind this but of course you have Chris Morris and now, among others, Little Britain with all its stuff about disability and Monkey Dust's beginners guide to cottaging.

The only thing that's in bad taste is people's hysterical reaction.
S'pose it depends on whether you see him as making light of a very serious subject, or as merely being topical seeing as these days you can't open a daily paper anywhere without reading about some kind of kiddy-fiddling story.
Personally I think it would be far more offensive/effective if the bloke had a real child attached to his waist.

Having seen the effects of a paedophile who is currently coming to the end of a pathetic sentence of three years residence at Lewes prison, any parents at that party will hopefully send him home again, in an ambulance not a taxi.
