I enthusiast park (azz in first) all my vehicles most of the time. In the 370, I angle my mirrors out to minimize the blind spots. Even with that, I can still see the rear wheel well bulge in the side mirror. I use that hump in the mirror to judge how far I am from the curb or from the lines. In my FX45, I use the rear door handle as a point of reference. You just have to find some reference point on each vehicle...to me the wheel well hump works.
I also just installed the same back up camera that Wheee! has, so that will help out too next summer.

I usually do 2 things when backing into a spot:
1) Use my side mirrors to get inside the lines with room to spare on each side. 2) Once I cant see the lines anymore, I go back and forth looking at the parking spot across from mine to make sure I am straight (usually they line up perfectly) and to the spots next to me to make sure I back in as far as I want. It helps me back in perfectly all the time
