BRZ Quarter Panels, Frame, and Chassis made of Ultra-High Strength Steel/Super-Steel

Hi guys, I was wondering if you can get your BRZ quarter panels, body frame, and chassis (esentially all the metal parts) made of custom high-strength steel or the new automotive super-steel? I want it stronger, lighter and longer lasting. A link of high-strength steel and super-steel below for those who don't know or understand its value. How can I get my BRZ constructed out of this?

I’d be easier to just strip the chassis and stitch weld it where needed. Modern cars are pretty stout already though. I don’t really see a need.
