Is a 4 gauge amp kit okay with a 300 watt amplifier?

I've got a JL Audio 300/2 amp and I'm looking for an amp kit. I found a good deal but it's a 4 gauge kit and I know I really don't need more than an 8 gauge kit for what I'm doing.
So my question is will this kit negatively effect my amp in any way or would it just be an investment in case I buy a more powerful 4 channel amp later down the road?

Not at all, only problem is you might not be able to fit the wire into the connectors without crimp connectors. And it might be difficult to find a crimp connector that fits 4 gauge with a small enough spade tip. You could absolutely trim some of the strands at the connection so that it fits.
Does JL 300/2 mean 150 watts per channel or 600 watts total power?
300/12 = 25 amps which 10 gauge is sufficient. You can buy #10 thhn by the foot at home depot

(It's normally 200 dollars for a 500 foot roll at my supplier, so home depot probably divides that and then increases to 250 to 300% by the foot. So worst case you'd be looking at 1.10 per foot, but it's more likely 70 cents. You probably need 10 or 12 feet (battery positive to amp and ground from amp to body) So 12 dollars for the supply wire. Then at 300 watts to one bridged speaker, you would need more number 10 (and I forgot to mention, get stranded, not solid wire, low voltage has a drop from wire resistance, stranded is better for this) So in that case just make it 15 feet, and remember the shorter your speaker hook up the better.
If it's two 150 watt subs, then you only need #14 wire for those, which is significantly cheaper.
If the RMS wire didn't come with the amp, you only need #18 and an inline fuse holder for a 1 amp fuse. Then you need a 30 amp fuse and holder to go at the battery on the positive wire.
Total cost of materials should be around 20-25 dollars if you get it yourself. Most 4 gauge amp kits are 80 to 120 dollars. I can't imagine you getting this good of a deal...
And by the way, the best place to get cheap fuse holders for car installs is a private Auto Sound supply shop. I payed 1.60 for a clear one with set screw connectors for my 50 amp setup.

But yeah, to actually answer your question, yes larger wire is not a problem. You can use it.

If you're amp is 600 watts, then you need a 50 amp fuse and number 8 minimum.

Edit: to the second answerer. A fuse is not a resistive limiter.
The lead fuse is primarily for protecting against a short if the wire gets damaged and touches the body of the car. But also to prevent the wire from catching fire from too much current being pulled through it. The fuse that comes with the 4 gauge kit is fine for this situation.
The amplifier fuse is probably easier to come by. And will protect the amp just fine on it's own.
