Take a look at the inner front wheel well on this "as delivered" new Carib. Even in shadow I suspect it would be lighter if it was Dover White. Also look at that little spot subject to so much debate between the upper front bumper on the side just below the parking light. There are those who claim this should be the lower body color, and if you follow the trim lines it might appear so. Yet there are other factory photos (in B&W, unfortunately) which seem to show the lower body color. I suspect this paint feature wasn't consistent throughout the production run.
