upgrade fuse?
Is thier any reason to upgrade the fuse for the foglights when running aftermarkets, I realize we can run 50wtt bulbs without any problems (besides melting the lamps plastic cover) is there any reason to get a bigger fuse?

Yes, the ampacity of the wiring governs the fuse size in a given circuit. You can always under fuse, but never over fuse the rated value.
