In old days there were many free BuddyPress plugins available for customizing BuddyBar and hence it was easy for the site owners to customize BuddyBar in their own style. But now you only get WordPress admin bar and there is not a single plugin available that provides you full customization of  WP Admin Bar visually in a user-friendly way. There are some good plugins they only provides you tweaks unless you are very good in writing CSS.
