At a glance, I would say no... but I don't have my GCR handy
Does sit higher than the bottom of the wheel rim?
Does it fit a stock bodied car, and is it covered in the vertical shadow of said body?
If the answers are yes, then yes.
No.
NOPE!!!!!! Its a Miata. Nothing Miata is legal!!!!!!!!!!:023:
It appears too high, and as mentioned appears to not fit a stock bumper. Further, I think it closes the radiator opening, which IIRC, is a no no.
It's not really a fair question. That is an EP or FP Miata it looks like. So it has alternate bodywork that the airdam meets flush to the body as well as an alternate nose piece that is throwing off the visual. So THAT unit would not be able to bolt up to an IT car legally because it woudn't meet the requirments in a variety of ways.
However, you COULD build one similar using the stock nose that went straight down. Mike at ISC has tried something similar.

ISC now sells this:

and it IS legal, and apparently works very well.
remember - no lower to the ground than the wheel rim, no higher on the car than 4in above the centerline of the front wheels at ride height. must not protrude beyond OE bodywork as viewed from above. cannot obscure factory grille opening.

I'm 99.9% sure that won't fit up to stock fenders.
thanks guys. a fiberglass version of the piece in the pic is for sale on the production website. until andy mentioned it i forgot that the production cars use different body panels. i didn't think it covered the stock grill opening and i figured i could trim the bottom if it was too low. my miata is on jack stands and i'm unable to measure from the center of the hub to the top of the bumper but it looks pretty close to 4 inches. either way it won't fit the contour of the stock body so i guess it's a no-go. too bad it would look bada## on my ita miata :(
