My car is fitted with one of the new petrol particulate filters, so it's possible this is why they stay quite clean.
Whatever you use, start with the least abrasive product, and work up from there. Even just wiping them over with tar remover may be enough. After that, look at mild paint polishing compounds. Even good old T-Cut won't do any damage to a tail pipe.

Thanks, Ian.
Mine has covered 12k miles and just been removed, I'm about to List on eBay so need to clean up.
I've already tried cleaning it but not taken off the marks (see below). T-Cut might be the one though.

They aren't very expensive and they're easily replaced. Definitely do it yourself; it's only one screw. About $50 USD for BMW brand and probably half that for good aftermarket.
