Hello @GT2015GCC ,
Dangerous ?
Possibly, as the fuel lines are exposed, along with the brake fluid lines, if you are missing the rear diffuser panel also, you are missing 6 of the 7 pieces, how did that happen ??

It is aIso not good for the proper cooling air flow to areas at the engine, as can be seen by the ducting in the belly pans.

It was like this when I purchased car it was involved in an accident front end so probably why.. I have a video showing everything more clearly but size is too large to upload here . I had an inspection by local garage and they didn’t notice what you mentioned .. do you think it’s worth taking to Bentley for. Full inspection ?

Same here

My 2007 GT only has the front and rear undertrays - no side trays. Did the 2007 come with all 7 trays listed in the pics above ?
