Not sure, low bf% helps of course. Maybe different variations of crunches and some static core strength exercises they will tighten the mid section.
 
First: Obliques

Second: Crunches and leg lifts will help accentuate them. To target them directly your going to want to do bending movements from side to side. One of my favorites is to hold a dumbell in your right hand. From there lean towards the right side untill your upper body is about 30 degrees from straight up and down. Hold that for a second then squeeze your left side as you straighten up. The working side will be opposite of the side holding the weight. 4 sets/15 to 20 reps. Another exercise would be weighted rotatations on a decline bench. Lay normal on a decline bench with a weight on your chest. From there press the weight straight out infront of you and sit up untill your body is straight. (about 6 inches off the bench). From there slowly rotate side to side squeezing your core while the weight is straight out infront of you. To burn this up after your used to it start pressing the weight as you rotate with it. These are the two i use and recomend to clients. Heres some others. Basically trial and error, plus do something you like. Working the obliques is BORING so find something you'll stick to.

Exercises for Oblique Muscles
 
Leg lifts...
But start with your knees bent (90 degrees, i think), heels facing the floor, then bring your knees up to your chest lifting your butt off the pad. Thats the real way to do leg lifts. You hit your lower abs and obliques more.
 
jesus, i did 3 sets of hanging leg lifts and 3 sets of the side crunches in that stand where you tilt your body for obliques, then added in a few regular crunches and im sore as fuck all over my midsection, especially my sides. ill have to do that more often. lol made it interesting when i went to bring myself up after benching :)

I always find this exercise hard on my back. Never tried the twisting exercise though. gonna try that out this week.
 
try laying on ur side and do leg raises. for a more advance version add crunches at the same time (while on ur side)
 
that is simply part of your ABS!

your obliques are at your sides ONLY!

they will grow along with doing crunches and leg raises along with your deadlifts and squats! I wouldn't be too concerned
