Run the 4300K for the fogs, and 6000K for the the lows. That would look great.

No problems with the fog light lenses melting with any of these setups?

Nope, I am running them in my truck and turn them on every night. They do not even get hot.

I run 6k for fogs and lows. I have 4300's for my highs, with the lows wired to come on with the highs.

I run 6000k in my low beam, high beam and fogs. they run cooler and use less watts/power than the factory halogen light bulbs that come stock. Got my HID kits from pilothid.com and have had them for 3 years with no problems. My lights run during the day as well because my windsheild is tinted dark. Also did a light mood that keeps my low beams and fogs on when my high beams are turned on -its like daylight!!!-
