Default Roll Bar Install

Found myself a nice brand new still in wrapping wolfe 6 point bolt in roll bar. Dual Swing Outs, removable center bar, powdered black. Great looking piece and fits in great.

My only issue is that it is a bolt in piece, and has a removable center bar(harness bar).

It sounds like a dumb question to be asking, but am i good just strip the powder off the plates and tubes and weld it up?

Yup! You'll probably want to try and strip all of the PC because when you repaint it you'll be able to tell where you ground it off unless you do some body work to it. But yea, just treat it like a regular weld in bar, tack the plates and fit the main hoop, then the rest, and weld away moving around to keep heat from building up, and make sure you weld that harness bar in to the main hoop or it's not "legal" for anything.
