If that's what you mean then that is certainly not safe. Looking at the attachment points for that bar and the mounting screws Plus sheet metal brackets it doesn't look that strong.

I suspect that you would be safer reinstalling your three points for the trip to the cage builder. You will need to unbolt the seat belt buckle from your factory seat and fabricate a bracket to attach it to your planted base
The OEM bar is just thin sheet tubing. It's just for looks. Here is the install thread of my Robispec bar. There is some comments on harnesses in there too.
