Default 1965 Lemans front bumper mystery

In high school I had 65 Lemans with a rusty front bumper. I picked up a really nice straight one with good chrome at Carlisle one year, brought it home and it didnt fit. It was definitely a 65 bumper, but it was much "flatter" than the one on my car. Almost like it was pushed in at the center point. I never really figured out what was going on with it and eventually sold it with the car with a bunch of other parts.
Did Pontiac make two different bumpers in 65, one for GTO / Lemans and one for Tempest? If so, I assume the new one Ames sells (B199W) is the GTO/Lemans version?

Thanks
