This is a very good point and one someone with the parts could check. The grill ends may have been changed for a number of reasons. Two that come to mind are that the part had a high rejection rate as originally made or it it was flattened to allow the later 71-72 headlight doors to fit better. IIRC there were changes from steel to aluminum on these just not sure when.
