Getting a frame painted in Northeast Ohio

After much research, saving, and persuading my wife I decided that a Specialized Allez Comp would serve as a good first roadbike for me. Unfortunately my LBS (Eddy's in Stow) did not have any in stock, nor did anyone else in the country it seems. And Specialized is not making them anymore.

So I purchased the Elite which is basically the same frame with an eye towards upgrading the components. Since I am going to be what amounts to a complete frame rebuild, I thought about having the frame painted to a scheme that is more to my liking.

Can anyone recommend a reliable paint shop in northeast Ohio that has experience painting bicycle frames. This bike has a carbon fiber fork and seatstays so I want to make sure someone knows how to properly sand and prepare those surfaces.

Thank you in advance for any advice.
