It doesn't require more pins. If the lowest bits are tied to ground the 
image is always a bit darker than it should, and you do not get the full 
brightness. But if you wire e.g. the red component:

SoC : Bridge
R2 ->   R0
R3 ->   R1
R4 ->   R2
R0 ->   R3
R1 ->   R4
R2 ->   R5
R3 ->   R6
R4 ->   R7

or

R4 ->   R0
R4 ->   R1
R4 ->   R2
R0 ->   R3
R1 ->   R4
R2 ->   R5
R3 ->   R6
R4 ->   R7

You'll get the full range.
