Yes a front lower tie bar is legal as long as it Fits these rules

Strut bars may be mounted only transversely across the car from upper right to upper left suspension mounting point and from lower right to lower left suspension mounting point. No other configuration is permitted. Additional holes may be drilled for mounting bolts. Only bolt-on attachment is permitted. Interior trim panels may be modified to allow installation of strut bars. Holes or slots may be no larger than necessary and may serve no other purpose. This does not permit any modifications to the frame or unibody beyond the allowed mounting holes.
Im 99% sure Spoon makes one....

as long as it goes to the suspension points. I think the spoon bar does too but in order to do that, it hangs really low. I don't think it will make that big of a difference so buy something better.

If your looking for that last 10th of a second, a lower tie bar may help you get it, but other wise your probably better off spending the $$$ on something else.
