Thumbs up Foglights staying on ? or leave them off ?

Gonna change my fog light bulbs out today to some 8300K Frost Purple's. Just wondering if anyone here is running around with their fog lights constantly on ? Would it burn the housing ? or is it safe to do ? let me know, thanks guys !

I have a red 5 led bulb in the DRLs, no problem with heat. Its made for a bulb to be in there so you shouldnt have any problems, LEDs are not hot like halogens anyway.
