Bonnet & Tailgate Edges - Finish

Hey guys,
I've been wondering for a while now when each time I wash my X (every Sunday) why the finish is as it is on the edges of the bonnet and the tailgate. In a word I reckon it looks shitty. I'm almost certain that the bonnet has not been resprayed because of the many touched up minor paint chips that have been there since I bought it (I intend to paint this year).

Does everybody else have these dull edges similar to mine at both locations ??

Surprising given that they are quite visible especially when the bonnet and or t/gate are open and I would of thought that on a bimmer that these edges would look 'the goods' and have a nice full gloss finish the same as the main pillar between both doors when they are open.

Pics are self explanatory.
