It might sound stupid to some people, but I was wondering if you could change a 4 door car into a 2 door somehow? I only want my 02 Malibu to have a 2 door. Thanks
Can you change a 4 door into a 2 door car?
It would cost more than it would be worth.
Sure, you could weld the back doors shut, but that really isn't a 2 door is it? A real 2 door car has much longer doors to help allow people access to the back seat as well as front seats that fold forward, again to allow people access to the back seat.
To do it properly you would have to cut the support posts between the doors and move them back to allow for the longer front doors you would need to get.
Remove the back doors and add sheet metal to the outside to bring the body up to the support posts. Add interior paneling and padding for the new addition. Glass panels would be needed too, unless you didn't want the back seat to have side windows.
Replace the front seats with forward folding seats and you're all set.
A very long, laborious and costly process, but can be done.

Weld the back two doors...
There's no practical or economical way to do this. You should have bought a 2-door in the first place.
I agree with Denver Al. The question is would it really be worth it?
I highly doubt that you would ever be able to sell the car with that degree of modification done to it.
