I think all factory bulbs are 4300K, but if you were to do an upgrade, better get the 6000K bulbs for the headlights and get 4300K foglights.

Oh no.....6000K vs. 4300K has a BIG difference! I just bought a set of 6000K for my C32. The 6000K has more blue, if you put 6000K on the left and 4300K on the right, you will think the 4300K is halogen!!
Btw, I just sent you an e-mail.....

Thats why I suggested you to get a pair of D2S 6000K for the headlights and change the foglights to 4300K. No need to use 6000K for the foglights.
