From what I've read, it's not advisable to do so since the bar isn't solid but hollow inside.

Mine was hollow. I had no problem powdercoating it.

I saw a car (Robispec Motosports?) that they had replaced the bar with a larger one that was strong enough to use as a harness bar. Anyone know of any aftermarket solutions for this so I don't have to put in a separate harness bar?

Is it functional or all looks? I want to powder coat it too.

Look into hydrographics if you don't want to remove the foam or plastic.

There was no foam or tubes in mine, just a hollow bar held in with two bolts and a bracket on each side.
