If they are plastic and yellowed, it's probably too late. Not a surface problem, but all the way through.

I use mother mag and aluminum polish and it makes a big difference.
If you get water in them remove then and drill holes in the bottom of them in the clear plastic where the bumper hides them.It won't get water in them anymore.
